Iran Reviews > Braves Prospects: Arodys over Teheran - Talking Chop

[Talking Chop] Also look at both guys numbers in SS Ball they are very comparable besides a slight edge ERA and K rate Teheran otherwise has better numbers than Vizcaino, Teheran has a better GO/AO ratio and a way lower BB rate which are more important stats to me at this point for an 18 y.o. Also BA and BP are quick to point out Teheran’s injury history but Vizcaino also has had back issues as well but not one source has mentioned that.

[Talking Chop] Where Does Arodys Vizcaino Rank in the Braves System - Talking Chop: Should be all but position players MI 3B/SS/2B in the first 5-10 picks unless there is a insane pitching opportunity that they can’t pass up…..With this list we have just 4 positional players outside Heyward/Freeman that has SOME potential to be serviceable MLers but the braves really needs to focus on getting Chipper’s replacement or back fill at 2B/SS if Prado move over to 3B. Plus it will give the FO more options to trade Escobar in acouple years when we have replacements coming up through the system.

[Baseball Prospectus] Baseball Prospectus | Future Shock: Yankees Top 11 Prospects: We he did at the very end of the season out of the bullpen gave a tiny glimmer of hope, but it's just a tiny glimmer. Based on his age, injury history, performance record (he's never EVER been consistently good), and scouting reports, there's no way he'd be in the top 20 for me.

[Talking Chop] Filling Out the Braves 2010 Lineup Card - Talking Chop: I believe our offense has improved a little bit. But, I think our offense was fine last year, and we wouldn't have complained about it so much if Chipper hadn't been in a slump for 3/ 4 of .

[MLBDEPTHCHARTS] MLBDEPTHCHARTS: ATLANTA BRAVES 2010: 81.1 IP, 78 H, 18 BB, 67 K (LoA/Rk) RHP Arodys Vizcaino: 2.13 ERA; 42.1 IP, 34 H, 15 BB, 52 K ( SS ): UPDATE 12/22 - acquired from Yankess in Vazquez deal.

[Capitol Avenue Club] Transaction Analysis Blog - Schrödinger's Pitchers | Capitol ...: For the privilege of their services, the Braves will part with 1 year of Javier Vazquez and 4 years of Boone Logan at arbitration salaries.  Logan is more MLB-ready than Dunn, but has less upside and years of control remaining.  It makes sense to sort of swap Logan for Dunn in that the Braves already have 2 capable lefties in their bullpen (O’Flaherty and Wagner), so they can afford for their third lefty to spend a few months at AAA, whereas the Yankees have already traded away Phil Coke and need someone to step into his shoes immediately.  Enter Boone Logan.  For illustrative purposes, Logan’s trade value (figure 4):

[Braves Journal] Why?: As Dave Cameron of FanGraphs says, the Braves obtain a decent outfielder who’s getting paid less than what he’s worth and a prospect with significant updside (Vizcaino), all while saving $8MM or more (I’m guessing Melky makes $2.5-3MM next season). The Braves dealt from strength and now have the money to lure a free agent bat to Atlanta.

[Talking Chop] Braves Not Interested In Big Name Outfielders - Talking Chop: I would be very willing to include Teheran right now for the kind of offensive addition that people are holding out hope for in the wake of this trade. I’m glad that we got a good prospect, but top prospects are still just people you are praying will some day live up to the kind of potential that can produce the caliber of season that Javier Vazquez just had.
