My Take
I am personally torn on this now. Previously, I opened by saying clearly “I personally do not wish for the Atlanta Braves to trade Evan Gattis this off-season.” I still pretty much feel that way, though I could hardly argue the point if Hart gets overwhelmed … and to be sure: San Diego could still do that by tossing us a top pitching prospect, a catcher, and another outfielder (at least) … or whatever they still have left.
I do believe that’s what it would take: an overwhelming offer. But with nutty GMs out there right now, anything is still possible.
Meanwhile, this was noted:
I'm told no, they are not. RT @AluxWud: @DOBrienAJC are the Braves still shopping Gattis?

…but I think we’ve heard that before, too.
