Braves Accept.
I have a good amount of cap space, but given my current team's composition, I think it will strongly benefit me to maximize on my current space available prior to free agency. My team has a lot of talent on it, but there are definite holes that need to be addressed in order to compete for a championship. Dealing away a net negative in Andrus helps me gain more cap flexibility and puts me in a better position to contend.
Armenteros is a fun prospect to dream on, but his strikeout numbers concern me. However, if he fixes his contact problems, he could be a lot of fun in a few years. Kalich is also a really exciting relief prospect, but a relief pitcher prospect who is likely a few years away doesn't help my more immediate concerns.
Thanks to Kenny for the deal! Best of luck as you develop your prospect juggernaut for a few seasons from now!

Cap dumps, cap dumps. Always interesting . I would like to see at least a rostered player or prospect, coming back from the O's. I reluctantly approve. Approval #1
