    trade of acuna?

    is it possible the braves wound consider a trade of Ronald acuna? The young man is a rare talent in baseball, but he seems to lack the proper respect for the game of baseball which could become a cancer for the rest of the team? and you would get a haul of talent in return?

    There is no way the Braves would trade Acuna. This is way over blown.

    Can we trade the real goat of the night in Snitker? I hear the Mets need a manager.

    Why trade him?

    Just release him. Sends a better message about doing things The Braves Way.

    Scheff ripped you, because he and 98% of the board is right in your post. It has to be worst ever.

    I promise the Chosen One to not rage or I would have gotten into you.

    A 21 year old, TWENTY FREAKING ONE, made a mistake and his teammates and his best friend got on him about it. You won't see this anymore. He owned up to it.

    Now his homer in the 9th, was a no doubter (450+ feet) and he has to learn that but youngsters learned. He did it 41 times, sometimes this happens.

    I will let the rest of the board roast you.

    I really don't say much anymore, but you are a simpleton.

    Some of this fanbase as a whole is starting to look extremely bad on Acuna.

    The one difference I have is he's likely to still play like he always has. He said he respected Snitker's decision on the regular season benching but that I will continue to play the game like how I've played it.

    But really if you're trading him you're sacrificing winning for muh muh lets play the game the right way. Although it wouldn't get that bad, do I need to remind these people about how 2015 went with a "bunch of good guys that play hard"?
    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.

    Lol it’s probably the dumbest post of the next decade.

    But just to take my mind off of the tragedy that was last night, can you imagine what the haul would be we’d get in trading Acuña? Seriously, what would we get, aside from the GM’s first born child ++?
