Braves looking for a 5th starter
Looks like they gave up on Mark Redman and released him. Now the Braves are looking for a 5th starter, and you have to wonder if they'd trade for Russ Ortiz.
All the Braves young hitters I know about are not changing uni's for Russ Ortiz, so I don't know what's realistic. But maybe something is.

Re: Braves looking for a 5th starter
Is Lowry's good start enough to give him the value of a Lowry for Salty straight up?

Re: Braves looking for a 5th starter
Klesko to the Braves would be interesting since he started there. They'd probably welcome him back. His final two years there is when he cut his strikouts in half and started the upward trend on his OBP. (Pretty remarkable improvement and hope for Feliz fans, I suppose.)

Lowry for Salty would be worth it

I don't understand a lot of that, but I can tell that he's really good, and the Braves could get more than Lowry, Morris, or Sanchez. I think we're over-valuing our own players. It's fun and all, but ultimately it'd be more realistic to look at someone like Kala Ka'aihue, which is just an awesome name. He's a first baseman with Galarraga-like power potential, although he's only in A-ball, I think.
