Around SBN: Ellenberger vs. Sanchez Heats Up, Hughes Talks Retirement

Former Braves

I figured this was worthy of completely ripping off from the AJC. It's a nice rundown of where many of our former players are playing this year.

Mark DeRosa: Career-high .296, 74 RBIs in 136 games with Rangers; signed three-year, $13 million contract with Cubs
J.D. Drew: Career-high 146 games played, 100 RBIs with Dodgers; signed five-year, $70 million contract with Red Sox
Johnny Estrada: Hit .302 with 11 HRs, 71 RBIs for Diamondbacks; traded to Brewers in six-player deal
Marcus Giles: Hit .262, 11 HRs, 60 RBIs with Braves, but struggled in leadoff role and was not tendered a contract; signed one-year, $3.75 million contract with Padres
Wes Helms: Played career-high 140 games with Marlins, hit .320 in 240 at-bats; signed two-year, $5.45 million contract with Phillies
Ryan Klesko: Played only six games for Padres after shoulder surgery; signed one-year, $1.75 million contract with Giants
Adam LaRoche: Had career bests of .285 with 32 HRs, 90 RBIs for Braves; traded to Pirates for LHP Mike Gonzalez in four-player deal
Javy Lopez: Hit .251 with eight HRs in 94 games for Orioles; signed one-year, $1 million contract with Rockies
Greg Maddux: Won 15 games with Cubs and Dodgers, including six in stretch run with Los Angeles; signed one-year, $10 million contract with Padres with mutual option for 2008
Jason Marquis: Went 14-16 with 6.02 ERA with Cardinals; signed three-year, $21 million deal with Cubs
Horacio Ramirez: Went 5-5 in only 14 starts for Braves, with three DL stints; traded to Mariners for Rafael Soriano
Chris Reitsma: Had 8.68 ERA in 28 innings with Braves; signed one-year, $2 million contract with Mariners with a club option for 2008

A cup of coffee...
...in 99. Here's the transaction bit from baseball-reference:

April 1, 1999: Traded by the Florida Marlins to the Atlanta Braves for a player to be named later. The Atlanta Braves sent Matthew Targac (minors) (June 11, 1999) to the Florida Marlins to complete the trade.

November 23, 1999: Selected off waivers by the Cleveland Indians from the Atlanta Braves.
