It probably wont happen but couple nuggets.
- Spotted in Orlando, could be nothing, could be something.
- Anytime there's a Braves rumor, DOB or Bowman shoot it down, they havent with CK. (of course right as i say this, Buzzkill Jr and Sr say it)
- And last but not least, that Kimbrel deleted his twitter.

If we do sign Craigsky is the offseason still a failure?

No, but JD has to mirror Harper stats or exceed them.

#Braves aren't close to finalizing any trades or free-agent signings, with Craig Kimbrel or anyone else. Of course those things can change quickly, but nothing imminent on any front as of Friday afternoon.
Get off my lawn!
Not sure a failure but probably a dissapointment given the money and prospects they had entering the year to improve the team this winter.
But if they dont sign him...
- Didnt lock in any huge contracts.
- Farm system is relatively intact.
- Still have money/farm to make a big in-season trade if the team proves to be good again at the deadline depending who gets made available.
With/without Craig, the bullpen shapes up pretty well imo.
I'd say you have four locks in O'Day, Viz, Minter, Venters.
Then Sobotka, Winkler, Carle, Biddle, Webb, Freeman, Jackson for 3-4 spots, and guys like Wilson, Fried, Touki if no SP spot if they'd be in the pen.
It's certainly miles better than what we had to open 2018.
Hahahahaha to all you falling for the Braves signing Kimbrel. Unles he is doing a one year deal then forget it. Way too risky and there is a contractor somewhere that is owed that 15 million

If Bowman says no deal is close, Kimbrel will be a Brave by this time Sunday
