Grist for the Millwood, III

Grist for the Millwood, III

Given the large number of non-tendors, a thought occurred to me. What if the Braves had just declined to offer Millwood a contract?

He would have become a free agent and almost certainly would have been lost to them. But the odds that he would end up on a division rival would have been somewhat reduced.

I would have taken the risk if all I was going to get out of trading Millwood to the Phils was Johnny Estrada anyway. Maybe that was the last screw-up in a litany that the Braves management had with their staff this week.
