If you meant most, I was thinking the same thing.

He could buy a nice lawn mower for his post MLB career.

Apparently the Braves are legitimately looking to deal Andrelton Simmons. I know they're rebuilding but that's hard to believe. He's signed through 2020, only 25 years old and the best defensive SS in the league. Unbelievable range. Won the Wilson Defensive Player of the Year Award today. Apparently they're talking to an unnamed NL West team.

Make it happen Dayton! Move Esky to 2B. Obviously joking, but we would have the best infield in the world and no one else would be even close. That would be a devastating PR blow to Braves fans.

Offer them the Chiefs 1st round pick for Simmons. Trade a lawnmower to OAK for Billy Butler. Trade Butler to the Chiefs for the 1st round pick that you need to trade to ATL. Billy can lose some weight and play LG or RG.

Chiefs are used to getting nothing from a first rounder anyways. ATL will somehow find some guy who played WR for 3 years and turn him into an all-star SS. Everything works out.

I think I'd rather have Zobrist's bat at second base.

The 25-year-old Bradley (26 next April) posted a nice .249/.335/.489 bating line in 2015 and justified the considerable defensive hype that comes with his name, saving eight to 10 runs (based on his respective Defensive Runs Saved and Ultimate Zone Rating marks) while logging a combined 608 innings across all three outfield spots.

Despite the strong cumulative numbers at the plate, however, Bradley didn’t hit much outside of a torrid month of August. A .451 BABIP that month helped propel Bradley to a .354/.429/.734 batting line — the power he showed does indicate that there was more to the surge than pure luck on balls put into play — but he didn’t post an OPS mark greater than .739 (just barely higher than his August slugging, alone) in any other month of the season.

Bradley is unequivocally a dynamic defender, which makes it understandable that the Royals, who value glovework perhaps more than any other team in baseball, would have some interest in him.

Interesting.... Bradley is an excellent defender.

Steamer has him at 1.9 WAR next year. Which for a 26 year old making league minimum, is very tasty.

BWillie 11-12-2015 10:08 AM

I'm trying to find out how historical of a run Wade Davis has had. I can't recall or find anybody myself that has had a run of two seasons like him at:

72 IP, 1.00 ERA (2014)
14.1 IP, 0.63 ERA (2014 post season)
67.2 IP, 0.94 ERA (2015)
10.2, 0.00 ERA (2015 Post season)

Eckersley? Nope. Mariano Rivera? Nope. Fernando Rodney had the alltime best season but both seasons before and after were not as good.

Josh Sherman reports they asked for DeGrom or Harvey straight up. ROFL

The Bradley interest is... interesting.

Signals to me that perhaps they're planning to move Cain to RF full-time. Not sure Bradley is really much of an upgrade over Jarrod Dyson, other than being younger and cheaper.

LOL at the Braves asking for deGrom or Harvey from the Mets, though the in-division thing may be a factor there. That's pretty silly.
