According to Jon Heyman, the Braves are close to acquiring Ryan Dempster.
#braves appear close to getting dempster

dempster has a no-trade. but as @Ken_Rosenthal said, #braves believed high on list. not likely to demand extension

braves mlb.com writer says it might be Delgado in return. That would be nice
Dempster for Teheran? (dying laughing)
If it’s Delgado, that’s fucking awesome. #41 in BP’s rankings
yeah i’ll take a 22 year old who rocked the minors and already has mlb experience for 2 months.
I can’t imagine Dempster for Delgado straight up. That seems too good.

If there’s someone else coming along with Demp, no obvious holes for the Braves other than Pastornicky at SS. He’s not very good, but he’s also young. Maybe Barney could play some SS there too.
