| Tags: Atlanta Braves, Cincinnati Reds, Jo Jo Reyes |
| Braves are making a push to get one of the better starting pitchers available. They're willing to give up pitching prospect Jo-Jo Reyes to get Bronson Arroyo.

| via Ken Rosenthal: the Braves are close to a deal for Royals' closer Octavio Dotel. They apparently have made a better offer than finalists Cleveland and Los Angeles. Royals GM Dayton Moore knows his way around Atlanta's farm system, of course. He had all kinds of player development roles within the Braves organization. |

Davies has been awful in over 200 big-league innings, with no indication that he's getting any better ... His fastball command is still poor, his control hasn't been good since he was in Double-A ... The only thing his average |

Still, it would've been nice to see John Schuerholz come up with some kind of starter for the back end of the rotation. Maybe in August. Startup's been solid |
