    That’s being cheap esp when they had over a month to trade for one and I think most folks knew Duvall wasn’t the answer.
    Even with Dans injury, having Adams, Rivera and Flarety on a playoff bench is unheard of and is 100% a result of Liberty not wanting to pay anyone.
    Once the Braves saw that they were going to have a chance to get to the postseason it’s mind boggling they couldn’t find one solid RHH to go along with Duda from the left side.legit options to call on in big moments like these not AAAA filler.
    We acquired Duvall. Didn't work out. Probably still should be on postseason roster

    I think most people thought Duvall was a credible bench option.

    The Braves were not expected to compete this year. That's why they maxed out their payroll with dead money. Left them very little room to make any improvements to the team. Why is why we lack a good RH pinch hitter. I suspect 2019 will be different.

    This has not been very fun. Kind of inspiring desire for radical off-season moves.

    This is straight up embarrassing. The Dodgers aren't even having to exert themselves.

    The braves have scored 1 or less in 4 of the last 5 games. 0 runs in last 22 innings

    Heretic! Swinging at the first pitch is the only moral thing to do.

    Ender isn't a good choice at 2nd either...
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
