Braves acquire Vazquez from White Sox ...make offer to Burnett...

The Braves are ...probably...out of the running for a trade that involves Jake Peavy. Probably. So, they went out and got themselves a seasoned Post-Season pitcher with over two-thousand K's in Javier Vazquez. Now, it just so happens, they have made an offer to Free Agent Pitcher AJ Burnett. Which is apparently in the realm of $16 million annually (yearly for you retards out there)  with an option for a fifth year. 

Burnett is, without a doubt, a good pitcher. It doesn't showcase your talent when you're pitching for a team like the Blue Jays unfortunately, but he's a hard-throwing left hander. Burnett would be a great addition to an already struggling Braves rotation.
