Agree on Contreras, but I think that Murphy deal is absolutely fantastic for the Braves.
In a theoretical world, if the Braves called up and offered Murphy for Contreras I'd say yes and hang up before they changed their minds.

Who's getting DFA'd to make room for him?
I know there are options, just wondering what the consensus is.
Alexander? Please?
Singleton seems like the other logical candidate.
Fine. Versatile player. Not much power. Bats righthanded which is good I guess.
Reverse splits, but pretty bad against both, although still quite young.
Bonus points for dating my co-worker's daughter for all of high school (he went to Ozaukee High School in Fredonia).
Find me any scouting report that says he is a likely CF. I just looked again. I found 6 that said he's not.
He's probably a LF, and I personally think Frelick is probably a LF too.
Edit to add: Where are you finding minor league range factors? I'd be interested to see them. thanks
There's pretty much zero indication that he'll ever be a CF, let alone a CF that creates WAR with his defense. That was always the biggest problem with him in my eyes. He's been considered a minus fielder all along.
