    Cornerstone player you would trade to replenish the farm system?

    is there a Cornerstone type player you would trade to help replenish the farm system? due to the braves pending limits and international sanctions?

    Taking inspiration from your other thread I'd say Acuña

    If we were forced to do so for some reason, then probably Freddie. He plays a position that is more replaceable than others and is on the shortest contract of all our key guys. I'd never do it though.

    Bryce Ball and Mahki Backstrom have it covered.

    Albies. I hear his future surplus value could net us the entire top 100 prospects in the game if I got my math right.

    This is a conversation to have in about 5-6 years when Albies and Acuna are running out of control if, and only if, the team has fallen out of consistent contention status. AA’s job is to make sure the Braves never trade off so much of the future that they see that scenario play out.

    Things like extending Freeman into his late 30s, or giving Bumgarner a 5 year deal are moves that will make an Acuna/Albies sell off much more likely.

    I’d be interested to see what we could get for Freeman but I’m not sure what the exact market for an old 4 fWAR 1B is. Fried and Soroka would be the other options I’d look at only due to the potential injury risk with pitchers.

    I wonder if we could get a "ToR Starter" for Adam Duvall now? His trade value has got to be skyrocketing since he has two hits.

    You should talk about trading Freeman next. Maybe he will actually show up tomorrow if you do.

    Is Lenny the reincarnation of Dukie from the old EPSN boards??
    Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
