Looking at the comments from earlier this morning, some commented Wiggington should have been signed instead. What good does that do us as a MI BU? We need someone who can play short also. Someone's solution of bringing up someone from the minors to give Reyes a day off isn't going to work. I.E., Reyes jams a finger sliding into second and has to come out of that game, or has a hamstring twinge running to first and is taken out. Where would we be then with no one who can play SS? And if you think it can't happen, I refer to Jerry Manual's first game as manager..... I think Cora was a needed signing.

You just don't know it until a signing happens. Also, MLBTR said one of the conditions the Braves but for the overly generous contract was a quick decision (sounds like "take it or leave it" so there may not have been time to re-shop Omar, although I am sure Boras pretty much knew he wasn't gonna top it. he probably was multitasking last week.

His stats are similar to Easley's, so we won't lose production off the bench 2. Change in personnel is a + this offseason 3. He's 6 years younger than Easley, and I really wanted our team to get younger I like the Cora signing for three reasons:
