southsider2k5 Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2011/12/brav..._medium=twitter The Braves made a run at Orioles outfielder Adam Jones earlier this month, according to Dan Connolly of the Baltimore Sun. Connolly reports that Atlanta offered Jair Jurrjens, Martin Prado, and a pitching prospect for Jones, but the O's "didn't bite," indicating how much they value their center fielder.

witesoxfan Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I would love to see him go to Boston. His ERAs have been significantly lower than his FIPs the previous two seasons and, though he's been worth quite a bit due to the 200 innings in both seasons, I would love to see him in a monstrosity of a hitters park in a much more difficult division. I've always loved watching him pitch but have never been a big fan of him and I don't think there's any way he'd keep his ERA below 4 pitching for Boston. I think this would be a bad investment by Boston which is the biggest reason I want to see them make this move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen Craig will be out until May with his injury, so Beltran will be a nice bat to have until then. Apparently, they want to play Beltran in center after Craig comes back.

LittleHurt05 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 QUOTE (flavum @ Dec 22, 2011 -> 06:55 PM) Carlos Beltran 2 yr deal with the Cardinals. That could be a steal. He has injury trouble, but it's only a 2 year deal so it won't handicap you. And the guy can still hit. Even with losing Sir Albert, the Cards might be the NL Central favorites at this point.

So taking that into account he's probably a corner outfielder at this point in his career, no? Hence playing him in CF everyday at $13M a year, he'd seemingly be out of position.
