Lazy mistake, thanks for noting.

If healthy, O’Flaherty is a beast. Hes bound to be signed by someone

Three Ex-Cubs in Maine, Guerrier, and Cotts. Maybe Clark scared them away.

I’d like to bring back EOF but not for a bunch of money. The Braves pen is great without him but he would still help especially seeing how we lost him and Venters to begin last season. I was worried this would happen after I saw the Joe Smith contact a long with a few others that he would realize he could get big money before we could sign him.

While I get the point Klugh is making, it’s a little off. Bowa was brought back by Sandberg (due to their familiarity). Charlie has a cushy “you won us a WS” job as “Special Assistant to the GM”. Wade was always pretty good at scouting. And Gillick is just good to have around in general. And in terms of the analytical employee – does Roberto Hernandez’s signing not shed light on the pull that guy has? I can’t imagine the Phillies signing a SABR-darling 3 years ago.

Honestly, i figured EOF was as good as gone. Im sure they only wanted to employ his services at a low rate- a rate other teams could and would best considering his previous track record. the braves are the absolute best at finding amazing relievers on the cheap so there is basically no reason to outbid for his services. Not that he wouldnt be an asset, but we did get by last year without him…

I’d love to see O’F in the O’s bullpen, next to O’D. How many other O’Pitchers can we find? Seriously though, if he can get back to even his 2009 self, he’s a keeper.

The question is will E O’F be able to pitch during Spring Training and be ready to go on Opening Day or at least around O.D.
Because if he isn’t, then I have no interest.

Don’t know the answer to that one. Haven’t heard one way or the other.

He will be ready no sooner than May, maybe longer
