Thorman...

..and from Braves.com:

"In an additional transaction, the Braves asked for waivers on first baseman Scott Thorman who then cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Richmond."

That doesn't surprise anyone, now does it?

Yes

I'm surprised, pleasantly, that he made it through waivers.

Hmmm

I thought Thor and Gotay would be part of a trade package. Still could be I guess.

Hmmm

Picked up Gotay, outrighted Thor to Richmond. FW has to have a trade coming up really soon. I love these last minute deals!

huh?

We were looking for a power bat off the bench who could also play some 1B.

Gotay is neither of those.  He seems to be pretty much a Prado incarnate, but maybe not as good.

I don't see a situation where we keep him.  He has to be part of a deal.
