Fact of the matter is the Braves management made a promise that they could rebuild in 3 years and be competitive in time to open the new ball park. They mistakenly invested in pitching prospects, and failed to be competitive by 2017 because those pitchers failed to develop. Analysts from every single legit site have repeatedly made comments along the lines of, "for some reason, the Braves think they are closer to competing than they really are". This is a fact to every non-pozzy that pays attention to baseball.
Now attendance and revenue are suffering, and they are feeling the heat from guys higher up the ladder.
Folks can keep their heads firmly buried in the sand, but I have been pointing this out for months. Everything points to these guys feeling the heat and making moves out of desperation to increase attendance, revenue and profit NOW. Not in 2019...NOW. Management always tries to shift blame to those below them, and that's exactly what we are seeing from the Johns right now.
It is clear as day to anyone who isn't blindly pozzy.
