6/26 GDT Mets vs. Braves finale ... it's damn hot

[UNCBlue012]

Why wouldn't you just let Bud continue? That's dumb as rocks.

Norris is depressing the market for Teheran.

Maybe Bud paid for another night for Wren at the hotel.

You can't make this stuff up

Raise your hand if you were one of the few who didn't want to cut Bud when he sucked earlier.

*raises hand*

I would have understood had they let him go, but between he and Chacin, it looks like the held onto the right one. Of course, that could change with their next starts.

Maybe they want to showcase Johnson and Viz today?

I wanted to cut him

Chip has lived it. So there's no making anything up.

I keep forgetting about Jim. He's been good (not efficient though) since coming back. Our pitching has been so good lol

[UNCBlue012]

Is there any way we do Teheran, Bud and Viz for a better package with the Sox?

I think Bud would be perfect for the Rangers though.

I tend to think that package deals diminish the individual trade values of all involved. Unless the other players are "throw ins" or "to make the money/value work" type things.

I could see sending Vizzy and Bud together, and Teheran somewhere else, or all 3 on individual deals, it would be odd to see all 3 though. (though if they wanted Norris to make the blockbuster Red Sox deal you certainly throw him in there)

[UNCBlue012]

Bud and Viz would be a fantastic trade to either Boston or Texas. I bet we see something like that.

Also, I LOVE Inciarte. Dude is going to be so good for us. He's just smart.

Inciarte showing why he is a top caliber player over the last week or two.

Sword fight?

Must be his amazing ability to get on base.

BOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. It kind of makes the Benintendi talk seem odd to me. It's not like Benintendi can't play all three OF positions, but he seems a bit redundant to me unless the Braves move Inciarte and/or Smith.

PS--Markakis also starting to play a bit better, which could earn him a spot on a contender.

ADONIS BOYYYYY

[bravos4evr]

Frenchy never met a pitch he didn't like

[Garmel]

I'm beginning to wonder if we really need to go to free agency to get a 3rd baseman.

I'm pretty sure we do, but Adonis is sure as heck making this better for us.

Over the last couple of weeks we've seen Bud, Teheran, Markakis, Jim Johnson, Adonis, Aybar and Viz all show they're worthy of a good trade or an opportunity to stay in Atlanta.
