Could the Cardinals realistically get Renteria for Reyes and Tyler Johnson?

I'd love to get him, but isn't he going to be a fair amount more expensive than Hunter

No, he should be a fair amount cheaper I would think.

I don't like the idea of Atlanta dealing Renteria unless receive someone better than Anthony Reyes. I think Rent is worth at least a decent #3 starter. Like who I don't know.

With A.Jones salary gone Atlanta will have the funds to pick up another solid starter if Rent isn't dealt. Maybe do so anyway since you don't know what you're getting our of Hampton.

I loved Glavine when he was in Atlanta but his salary just isn't worth it to me. Unless he'll give Atlanta a discount.

I really like the upside of Anthony Reyes, but I'd rather get someone more proven with a team that has a good chance of contending in the NL next season. I know the Braves offered Renteria for Garland at the trade deadline, but the White Sox turned it down. Sounds like the Braves are high on both Garland and Vazquez, so maybe something can be worked out involving one of them and Renteria + James.

Andruw's salary is gone, but the Braves have so many raises going into effect, his departure isn't going to free up that much payroll.

I read the Braves Scout site a lot and their administrator is pretty plugged into the Braves plans. I'm not big on Glavine coming back, but it sounds extremely likely for a 1 year deal at $6-7 million. He'll eat innings, but give up a lot more home runs in Atlanta than he did in New York.
