Re: 2007 Atlanta Braves Thread: Reclaiming the NL East
This team is getting ridiculously painful to watch. Hopefully Schuerholz is able to get Buerhle for a package of Escobar, Thorman and possibly a mid-level prospect. Buerhle is the innings eater we desperately need and Salty needs full playing time at 1st.
BTW, what is the expected market value for Buerhle? Would 4 yrs. at $38-42Mil. be able to resign him? It could also be more backloaded so that when he becomes expensive, Hampton and maybe Smoltz are off the books so it wouldn't be that prohibitive.
