What year is it?!? 2007?!? Braves are bringing back Brian McCann. One year deal for cheap so I'm fine with it, I guess. Grandal or Realmuto would've been awesome but with the Marlins reportedly wanting Acuña (LMFAO! GTFO!) in a Realmuto deal, it's not surprising we are going a different direction.
Also signed Josh Donaldson. One year, $23 million supposedly. Seems like a lot for an injury prone guy and I was okay with Camargo as our everyday 3rd baseman; but it's also only a one year deal so if it doesn't work out, he's off the books after next season. If he does well, Camargo will have a regular utility role. Donaldson is also a great hitting mind to expose our young bats to.
I read somewhere (I forget where, maybe it's b.s.) that he turned down some more lucrative offers in order to come back to Atlanta. He's a Georgia native.Yeah, that is cheap for a guy who was making $17M but 2018 was not a good year for him. Still only 34 though and guy can catch.

Glad you guys got Donaldson, Cards were rumored to be in on him and I wanted nothing to do with him.
Trade gossip of the day that made me laugh out loud at the absurdity of it.

Twins rumored to be interested in Sonny Gray along with several other teams. Skeptical the Twins have anything to offer that would beat out other suitors. Gray would be a good pickup for someone. He was a total washout under the pressure in NY but could be a good #2 or #3 in a lower key setting. Somebody might get a good deal here. Could even end up back in Oakland.
Does Gray even have any suitors? His trade value couldn't possibly be lower right now. He was a complete disaster this past season.
Mariners might as well unload and begin rebuild because the Astros still have a fair amount of years in front of them.This is a huge deal for the Mets. Seattle packaged Diaz with Cano in order to unload Cano's contract for Mets best prospects. Odd in a way since Cano contract runs for another five years and thought he might go to an AL team with DH.

Segura will probably be gone too.Agree, probably a good rebuild move but gotta be tough giving up Diaz.
