Yeah we had a good team despite off years by a few guys.
One thing to note, I heard yesterday that Washington is the leading candidate to land Prince Fielder.
I think Only or Gammons said today that the nationals executive he talked to didn't consider Fielder a priority. And apparently that's because there's sorta a clog there. Moore and LaRoche are first basemen and apparently Zimmerman will have to move to 1st in a few years. A long contract would interfere with that.
If it weren't for the Zimmerman thing, I could see it working out. But they've sank a lot of money into him so it's hard to see them investing long term to where he project to end up.

The Braves had a good team last year. They don't need to add much if anything right now. They can add through the deadline for a better return.
Also, Liberty Media has been a great ownership group. They keep their hands out of the operations and they allow the Braves to spend what they make.

I think we do too, but I'm not so certain that we need it before the trade deadline talks start to heat up. I think we can get more out of the guys we're willing to trade then versus now.
