I actually really like this move. There was a possibility of them getting Adam LaRoche back, but I'm not so sure another lefty bat is what the Braves need. If Jason Heyward does in fact come up to play in the majors this year, that's another lefty bat to go along with Brian McCann and Nate McLouth. I think Glaus still has something left in the tank. I'm still not sold on Melky Cabrera, but the idea of him playing the outfield is starting to grow on me. Slightly.
The Cardinals finally got their man. It looks like Scott Boras realized the market wasn't growing for Holliday, it was shrinking. He probably wanted to get a deal done before it was completely obvious that the Cardinals were the only pony in the race.
