Time to move what i thought would be a good long term deal for a more favorable one. I hoped Markakis would thrive in a lineup that relied less on him, so far I was wrong. One thing that worries me is his babip is around .240 now and I'm his single season low before now is .314 so his progression back to the mean could hurt me in this deal. But I like what Floyd's done so far and with the way Joyce has been playing I can afford to take this chance.

Yanks to confirm

i accept with 3 solid aces i needed to add an offensive weapon as a few bats are down for me
