The Braves traded minor league pitcher Rico Rodriguez to Kansas City on Monday for outfielder Matt Diaz, who will compete for a spot on the major league roster. Diaz, who turns 28 in March, batted .371 with 14 homers and 56 RBIs in 65 games last season for the Royals' Class AAA affiliate in Omaha, and he batted .281 -- including .370 against lefties -- with two triples, a home run and nine RBIs in 89 at-bats in stints with the major league club. http://www.ajc.com/news/content/spo...5/20braves.html |

this is actually a very good deal by and for atlanta. it flips an easily replaceable commodity for a needed part. matt diaz will never be a superstar in the major leagues, certainly, but he is more or less a right-handed kelly johnson and gives the braves a true platoon option in left field. this feels like a precursor move. s/ ***** "What -- what's Jesus doing in my rock?

Honestly, what's not to love about this deal? A right-handed, 28 y.o., cheap outfielder who's put up OPSs of 900, 948, and 1057 at AAA over the last three years and yet, for some reason, has gotten a total of 119 major league at bats over that time (in which he was unspectacular but not horrible). Granted, the first two of those came in a great hitter's park but the 1057 last year at Omaha (which has been very neutral in previous years) is legit. Quote:
To me it feels like we just got the lefty-mashing half of the LF platoon...and we already had the right-handed half in either Johnson or Langerhans. I suspect that, if there is a major move, it will be to acquire pitching of some sort. |

Exactly, with one of Johnson/Langerhans now available to be moved for pitching. Plenty of teams could still use a real CF, and Langerhans fills that job quite nicely... Jon |

You may be right on this. if LF is nailed down, and I think they're handing RF to Frenchie (I have serious reservations about that), that seals most all of the positions. Colin |
