Dbacks and Braves agree to Upton deal

[canonfaz]

Worst. Trade. Ever.

No way that goes down.

[luismatos4prez]

No way no how. DD ain't that dumb.

Unless we're getting something else back, I would HATE this deal...which leads me to believe there would be more to this.

[crawjo]

Me too. I like Upton and I would try and headline Schoop in it. Dbacks seem to like SS's. Even though they received one from CLE.

Schoop and some young pitching minus Bundy and Gausman. If it doesn't work, move on.

I suspect that the D-Backs have already made it clear that Bundy would have to be in a trade for Upton. If you had a 25-year-old outfielder with massive power and proven ML skill under team control for three more years, I'm pretty sure you'd demand the best prospect your potential trade partner had.

[MrOrange82]

Which Johnson? Maybe DD's planning to send Detroit a Chippendales gift certificate or something. Sure, we'd be out some cash and a bit of dignity, but c'mon man...

...30 dingers...

(OK, I'll stop now)

Watch the video clip. This is about as vague and speculative as it gets.

There's a report in the Atlanta area that the Braves are offering Teheran plus for Upton. I don't think we can come close to matching that, unless we included Bundy. We know that's not happening.

And I might give up Bundy, knowing that we have Gausman coming as well.

Unless it is Dave, I don't care which one it is.

[SrMeowMeow]

The world will end, by my hand, if this trade happens. Which it won't.

If we give up anything at all for Kubel, I'll be mad.

[canonfaz]

They lost me when they started talking about Matt Winters.

This trade is not happening.

[paulcoates]

No way. Maybe Steve Johnson, but even that I kinda doubt simply because I am not sure Arizona needs Porcello.

[clapdiddy]

This trade is not happening.

What are you talking about? I'd trade Matt Winters in a minute!
