    Just make good smart moves, and if a good player becomes available like a Yelich, Realmuto, etc, make a push.

    We do need to make some moves though.

    I guess AA is counting on Grant Dayton when his toe heals, we seem awfully RHP heavy in the bullpen right now.

    Couldn't help myself...

    Sure looks like Luhnow *hit all over those value charts today - those explanations sure ought to be interesting.

    Was anybody traded today not an overpay???
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    I dont see any reason to go after anything but elite talent with the depth we have. I think its about time the Braves made some big signings, upped payroll to a more reasonable 160 million, and started trying to win championships instead of division titles. These next 2 years after 2019 I believe are our best chances to win a title. These moves we made this year arent going to get us to a WS.

    We expect one of Wilson, touki , newk or Wright to step up into a good cheap 5.

    Bring back 1 of gausman, Dallas, Tehran. Sign a 1 year vet arm and expect to add Anderson mid year.

    Trade for a rental corner of. Pache up next year.

    Needed the 40 man room for pache, Anderson and maintaining pitching depth in weigel, Davidson, etc

    Based on today's moves its implicit we will have an opening in the rotation for the young unseeded to fight over during spring training.

    Based on what McGuirk said a few months ago they are targeting 140m for next year, which works out to about 130m opening day.

    Hey the deep master himself makes an appearance.

    I’ll do a surplus value call for you later, though you won’t be able to follow

    I’d say Fried will be a bullpen guy in the playoffs.

    AA definitely does not spend money or prospects carelessly. They must have crunched some major data and feel strongly about him for whatever reason.

    I “did” notice his era against the Dodgers...
