Vazquez being traded? Rumors out of Atlanta insist that the Braves are going to trade a pitcher. David O’Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution offers that the Braves are looking to deal Javier Vazquez, or offer him a contract extension. The Dodgers are mentioned as a trade partner. However, it is highly unlikely that he will end up anywhere near the West, where he has a no-trade clause for each of the nine Western division teams.
Jon’s Take: I say pass on this one. He wasn’t happy in Arizona, and will more than likely be just as upset to be in Los Angeles. If he gets traded, I could see him going to the Cubs.
