  • Dempster/Braves trade is 50/50

    According to Jon Heyman, the Braves and Ryan Dempster trade is 50/50

    The Ryan Dempster-Braves trade is now said to be "50-50,'' according to one person familiar with the talks.

    The deal, as proposed, was going to send top Braves pitching prospect Randall Delgado to the Cubs.

    "It could happen, or it could blow up,'' another person said.

    It isn't clear what the holdup is, as several sources suggested the trade was on the verge of happening earlier in the day.

    I'll guess I'll take a wait and see approach.

      braves.com says they’re waiting for Dempster’s approval, but Heyman isn’t sure about that: http://atlanta.braves.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120723&content_id=35420372&vkey=news_atl&c_id=atl&tcid=tw_article_35420372

      It’s important to have some kind of approach.

      @ Suburban kid:
      I like to approach things in different ways, but this I’m just going to wait and see.

      @ mb21:

      Is that like allowing time to elapse, then looking?

      If Garza is being skipped “at least” one start, why would any team trade for him until he’s started again? Makes no sense.

      If Garza is skipped more than 1 start he won’t pitch again this month.
