Braves Scouting Silva

by Eli Greenspan on Jul 21, 2007 12:11 AM EDT

The Atlanta Braves had scouts at the Twins versus Angels game and from what I saw (I was there), they were all over Carlos Silva. The Braves are looking to acquire Bronson Arroyo but if the Reds asking price is too high, I'm sure they will look to the Twins. Silva is 7-10 with a 4.55 ERA and 50 K, but a switch to a run producing NL team could benefit him.

LMAO, I stunned a few ushers, silently snuck behind some scouts and stole a look at their clipboard and radar gun. Introduced myself and asked what team they were from.
