Lol. I know you're jokingly but this could actually happen if they are still available after the draft. |

They will sign in June, the teams do not want to lose the draft pick Its not that long from now Exactly. GMs are always concerned with now. They would much rather lose a 3rd overall pick next year than this year. Because of this I can see us signing both if they make it to June. |

They would much rather lose a 3rd overall pick next year than this year. Because of this I can see us signing both if they make it to June. Why not if they are still out there. Kimbrel can do nothing but help if he is healthy and right, he should be in AAA to start to get some appearances in if he signs then. As for Keuchel, the red flag on signing starters late is that recent history shows that SP's who sign late tend not to have good years on the first year. This was the case for Lance Lynn last yr, Yovani Gallardo a couple yrs ago and another guy last yr whose name slips my mind at this time. And, like Keuchel, they too were not overpowering pitchers, guys who pitched to contact. I might consider passing on Keuchel now for that reason. I just hope they can get something out of O'Day who in an indirect sense was our bullpen acquisition for this off season though that trade was made last July 31st. Maybe that is why Alex passed on FA relievers and hoped our young guys would cut it - there is still time to see |

I could see the Braves signing Kimbrel after the draft. Only problem is I can see a dozen other teams doing the same thing.
