Short of it...
The writer, Joe Pawlikowsy, most likes the odds that Wandy is elsewhere by Aug 1 to an unspecified team.
He thinks Bourn could be ticketed for the Braves, and that he may be especially available since he becomes a free agent after next season.
He thinks Ed Wade would be smart to ship Pence off now instead of later b/c of some peripherals, and considers the Red Sox and Phillies to be prime buyers... but repeats the word on the street that Wade isn't marketing Pence regardless.
He likes Myers to a contender with a low-HR rate ballpark like the Tigers.
He has Barmes to the Cardinals or Brewers, as contenders in need of d-first shortstops.
And he has a name I hadn't heard bandied about... Wilton Lopez.
But the real headscratcher is that Jokin Joe imagines that Keppinger "could still help upgrade a team such as the Braves, Brewers, Reds, Rays, or Giants at shortstop."
