Who is Chris Jones? Strange trade to me...usually it's the Braves trading away their minor league prospect pitchers isn't it? (e.g. Feliz the closer with the Rangers)

Don't forget Matt Harrison came to the Rangers with Feliz in that trade too. Not to mention Elvis Andrus.

Derek Lowe was horrible last year, most braves fans are thrilled to see him go.

We have a ton of great minor prospects we want to move up.

I know that I am not mourning his departure.

 

[Yeagermeister]

Isn't Lowe like 50 by now? :laugh2:

Considering how short a time Tex stayed with Atlanta, the Braves got screwed on that deal.

Understatement of the year. :laugh2:
