Paying Fried after the season should not be an issue, and if not for Anderson, Fried wold be the Braves bonafide ace. Expos are doing this as Dalbec has the power to play in Boston and Bart has been blocked forever it seems by the great Buster Posey and will finally get his chance this season. We may give up some production short-term, but given Walsh is 28 and we cut cap, we're happy with this deal.
