The commissioner reviewed it and there was a chance he would block it because marlins weren't getting anything in return. I don't care about the trade doesn't bother me I just thought I'd post that he said he would let it go through.
You tryin to be a hero fool? You wanna see badass mother fucker?! I'll show ya a badass!!!
there's a possibility of lawsuits based on that trade though because the marlins courted and received a shitload of public funds for their new stadium and now they've disassembled the team. loria is looking to sell the team and there's a school of thought that he used the stadium already being there as a means by which he could boost the selling price.
Free-agent outfielder B.J. Upton has agreed to a five-year deal worth $75.25 million with the Atlanta Braves, pending a physical, a baseball source told ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick on Wednesday.
Upton has spent his entire eight-year career with the Tampa Bay Rays. He batted .246 with 28 home runs, 78 RBIs and 31 stolen bases last season. He's averaged .255, 20 homers, 75 RBIs and 39 steals per season.
Chapman got a tired arm last year from being a closer. They think him throwing ten times as many pitches is going to be beneficial? He has all of two pitches and lacks command. What part am I missing? He was good as the closer, why fix something that isn't broken?
Well he was hired as a starter. Moved the the pen. Was going to start this year and was the best in spring training until madson got hurt. His tired arm came not from innings but because of pitching four and five consecutive days and he has three pitches. Fastball, slider, changeup. But when you're as good with command as he is you don't need more than two pitches.

ryan madson to the dodgers for 1 year 8.5 mil
reds sign broxton to 3 year deal. will likely be the closer and aroldis chapman will move to a starting slot
Also, it's not like Cincinnati's rotation is in dire need of a starter.
