Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

As much as I'd love to see Acuna day 1, it's better for the organization to let him sit to get the extra year of control. Even if Acuna plays day 1 and they find a good player at 3B, this team still...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

I'm wondering if he lifted his no-trade clause on the agreement that we would DFA him immediately so he would be free to sign somewhere that he might get to play.

I would have liked to see him...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Guess we have our new GM. I don't really know much to have an opinion so I'll just hope for the best.

All I really know about him is that he managed a post season run in one of the more difficult...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

A solid hitter to go behind Freddie would be awesome, and he doesn't turn 30 until the end of next season. He scares me though. He blew past his previous career high of 22 HR this year with 38 while...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

That would completely suck if we lost Maitan. The draft pick losses would suck, but it's easier to recover from 1 bad draft than it is to just up and replace one of your top prospects.

I wouldn't...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

I don't mean to be cavalier because I hope that Freddie is happy (though I know he's voiced his displeasure with the lack of winning to the front office at least once in this past). But this is a...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

I don't think Matt Adams offers any kind of security to allow the team to be flexible with Freddie. Adams would be a nice piece for an American league team so they don't have to deal with his...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Saw an article how the giants should pursue Freeman to be their 3B. The writer was delusional that a handful of good prospects might bring him in, or that the organization might be looking to offload...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Yeah I'd love Stanton, but the only way it happens is if Miami eats a lot of salary. Getting a team to eat a lot of salary means we have to trade more pieces and this team is not in a position where...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

I really don't know what he could hope to gain with the lawyer's. Even if it is widespread he was still complicit. If anything I would think he would be potentially liable for damages incurred by the...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Dayton Moore concerns me a bit. KC had a great run recently that I can't argue with, but it was 8 years before he put together a team with a winning record.
He followed that up with a great 3 year...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Just being hyperbolic since we are the most recent offender.

I hated Wren. The reason our farm was so depleted started with the end of John's tenure as GM, but Wren had 6 years to turn it around...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

That's at least some good news.
I'm not sure what is more shocking. The fact that the braves just became the most corrupt organization in the MLB or that we might benefit from a Frank Wren move

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Losing maitan would really suck, but at least there would be time to recover before his projected mlb debut would have been.

If we lose Acuna though...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Wondering who we get to replace him and what penalties are levied.

I have a fear that Kevin maitain will not be in the braves system in 2018

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Sims is definitely interesting. Like so many of our young pitchers control is a problem, but there are some things that are promising. I think he fits more into the old Kris Medlen role of a spot...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Yeah Dansby continues to be a concern. More than the lack of home runs the fact that he hasn't drawn a walk in 2 weeks is a problem.

Dansby deserves a shot to redeem himself in 2018, but wouldn't...

Re: 2017 Atlanta Braves

Gohara is my favorite young pitcher who has made it up in a long time. We have heard about his potential and he has combined that with attacking the strike zone. Every young pitcher we have had with...
