Braves just traded Viz and Biddle to Seattle for Swarzak. Amounts to a free look at Swarzak. Viz is out of the year and Biddle can't be called up to walk the farm again.

Swarzak had a brilliant 2017 but hasn't been great since. ERA in the 5's this year with a high walk rate. Should fit right in. Hoping a change of scenery does him some good.
Hopefully we’ll get a Brad Brach like performance out of him.

Nothing to bitch about either. We said the same thing about Brach last year and he worked out pretty well for us.
Plus they move Viz’s salary. Not making predictions, it might be a sign that money is being moved around to make room for a certain free agent.

Are you forgetting this team is the Atlanta Braves?

I won't either, but if there's any chance, they were probably gonna have to move either Viz's 5 million or O'Day's 9 million off the books.
