Makes sense if the Braves either trade a starter (JJ or Lowe), or if they don't mind keeping Minor in the minors for a while longer. Maholm is due $6.5M for next year with a 2012 buyout, so basically the same as KK.
As a State alum, it would be great to see Maholm as a Brave, but it doesn't really do much for the Braves if it's a straight-up swap.
