3The Braves are a team that are trying to contend this year and since they don't have a second basemen, Adam Frazier could help them it second. Although Adam Frazier hasn't been the greatest this year, he has some hits. We also can't forget he was an all star last year and he had a really good batting average with the Pirates. Besides the Mariners wouldn't be getting a really good prospect as this 3rd basemen/outfielder is ranked the 28th best player in the Braves farm system by MLB.com. I know the Braves have Robinson Cano, but Cano isn't that good, there's a reason why the Mets cut him and the Padres demoted him to the Minors it's because he's a washed-up veteran player that is being overpaid. Frazier would be an upgrade from Cano.

Hello friend! Thanks for taking a few minutes to articulate your thought process behind posting your trade proposal. I love reading that stuff, especially when it's written well enough that I can understand it. Here's my reply! I'm a Braves fan, so that's my perspective. The Braves do have a 2B, he's on the IL right now, and the Braves are holding their cards close right now as to when he'll be back and ready to play. I admire this strategy. I'm not so happy with Cano on the team. I don't like people who cheat. I figure that a guy that's gotten paid over $200 MILLION dollars to play a game should have at least had enough sense to pay enough smart people around him, and listen to them, and be able to trust them, to not have cheated TWICE. But that's in the past. Cano's an idiot, a rich idiot maybe, and let's see if he can help the team win. The Braves do have someone at the keystone and it's either Cano, Albies (when he's back) or Arcia. I think it's make-or-break or Arcia. Final call on him for me.
I know who your talking about, it's Ozzie Albies. He's a good second basemen, but he will be out for a bit because of his left foot. I don't like Cano either, but it was funny that the Mets are paying for 90% of Cano's remaining salary instead of the Mariners because of a disaster trade. (I know Kelenic hasn't worked out, but the Mets still have to pay most of Cano's remaining salary instead of Seattle paying it all) Cano makes about 24mil a year. Adam Frazier has been hitting a little better, he has reached safely 5 days in a row and he even hit a home run in the two day doubleheader against the Nationals. Orlando Arcia isn't bad, but in the end he is looks like a backup player for Atlanta. Adam Frazier would make a good replacement for Ozzie Albies, but when Albies comes back, then Frazier will be on the bench since Atlanta's outfield is really good and the DH spot would be taken by Duvall. But Frazier would be a good player to have when people need time off and he has some speed so he could be a good pinch runner as well.
