The tweet above makes it seem the BRAVES cut loose of the trade, not the Cubs or Dempster. Not sure where you are getting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa1334 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 it seems like they are just waiting for his approval, i think it gets done. it has been reported many times he would accept a trade to certain teams, especially in the n.l. and the braves being one of them. would be shocked if he said no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Yeah, Braves were apparenly #2 on his wish list after the Dodgers. Maybe he veto's this and asks them to work some more on a Dodgers deal, if they can't he will accept the Braves deal at the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 Jerry Crasnick @jcrasnick Dempster is pitching Wednesday, so #cubs and #braves should know soon whether he'll accept or reject the deal. Expand But when trade leaked out in media Monday before #cubs informed him, Dempster was not happy. Felt blindsided, said a source.

I wonder if he would reject the deal, simply because he was upset about the way it went down. That would be fine by me, the Cubs don't need to be adding any arms to that system.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Did anyone see video of Albert Almora's first HR in what I believe was his 1st pro game? He absolutely crushed it. Sounded like a gun going off, and although it's hard to tell, it looks like the ball may have cleared the scoreboard. Well over 400 feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dempster is really screwing the Cubs over by not going to Atlanta. Randall Delgado would have been a hell of a get for the Cubs. I think Theo's plan was to send Demp to Atlanta and Garza to LA for Zach Lee. Zach Lee and Randall Delgado would have been a nice start for the rebuilding plan on the pitching side.

southsider2k5 Posted July 25, 2012 Author Share Posted July 25, 2012 nice bluff. Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN As of now, Cubs' plan is to keep Dempster and make qualifying offer to get a draft pick -- unless offers improve. Not close to LAD deal yet.
