Braves trade a glove(literally) to A's for money or a PTBNL

The Atlanta Braves have traded worthless 4th outfielder, Ryan Langerhans to the Oakland A's in exchange for a Player To Be Named Later or cash considerations.

From David O'Brien of AJC.com:

LANGERHANS TRADED TO OAKLAND.

For cash or a player to be named. Braves are bringing up Willie Harris, who’s batting .362 with a homer and seven RBIs in 17 games at Richmond, and .412 vs. right-handed pitchers.

Bobby says doesn’t know how he’ll use him when I asked if it’d be platoon. But I think it will be.

There must really be some serious shit going on in Oakland if they would trade for Langerhans. Langerhans, after finally breaking an 0-29 slump, well once you go 0-29 is it really considered a slump? Anyways, back to what I was saying, Langerhans sucks, he's a great outfielder but he makes Rafael Belliard look like, oh I don't know, someone who doesn't suck balls. Anyways, this is definitely addition by subtraction. Now we just need to find a way to lose Chris Woodward. Oh well, oh and on a side note, we lost today, Bob Wickman fell apart again and Holliday hit a walk-off 2-run shot off of Colyer in the 11th. But we got the Phillies coming to town so that should be fun and Woodward....go play in the street.
