yeah, that was a fleecing. Soooooo happy that Beltran didn't want to go to the tribe....not a fan of his at all.

LOL Giants. Braves wouldn't give up probably their 4th or 5th best pitching prospect. Giants hand over their best.

Giants are in win now mode. Braves are as well, to an extent. But their players are all so young, especially pitching. Giants have some younger pieces, but a lot of their field players are up there. At least, it seems that way.

This COULD end up being a win-win. Beltran could help carry that offense, and with their pitching we know they can win a WS.

Some tidbits:

The Indians have asked about Jimenez, but are a "real longshot," according to Danny Knobler of CBSSports.com (on Twitter).
The Indians are strongly in the mix for Jimenez, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports. The Indians have been working aggressively to upgrade their offense and rotation, Rosenthal writes. They're "thinking big in multiple deals."
