Oakland A's and the Atlanta Braves have agreed to the following deal:Oakland Receives:CI Stewart, Ian, $0.5m (P-2011)P Jurrjens, Jair, $0.5m (P-2011)OF Anderson, Garret, $1.5m (2011)X Braves to pay $1m in 2010 toward AndersonOF McLouth, Nate, $5.5m (2011)X Braves to pay $1m in 2010 toward McLouthfor Atlanta Receives:OF Maybin, Cameron, $0.5m (P-2012)OF Bradley, Milton, $4m (2010)P Anderson, Brett, $0.5m (P-2012)P Perry, Ryan, $0.5m (P-2012)I went toe-to-toe with the King. I think we both came out competitive for this year and looking good for the future. So I make this move for Stewart a very good young bat. He is producing very well and his career numbers show last year's OBP struggles to be more of an anomaly. I also recieve Jurrjens a serviceable arm, I hoping he begins to bounce back from his early season struggles. McLouth is a good option in the OF, he walks a ton, provides stats across the board, hopefully his 40% K rate can lower to his career norms. He is a very streaky player. GA adds depth. I give up a premier young arm in Anderson. His innings increase 2008 - 2009 and high slider % worry me. He is great when on the mound and locked in thru 2012. Maybin will be very good, but appears to be somewhat streaky. He is a toolshed, but we will have to see how he continues to develop. Milton is a wild card, I see him and Mclouth as a wash, both are looking to get it going. Perry is a good young arm, but in our scoring format, he is simply ok. Trade is pending that the TC approves the Marlins/A's deal from a few days ago.Good deal for both.

A keen observation indeed...

Shouldn't the RS money follow Milton to ATL. We (RC) decided that money should stay with the contracts. FLA sent the RS money with Bradley, to the A's. After Parker brothers, er Milton Bradley was sent to ATL I would think this would be an instance where that would hold true to form.
