    His velo has been down for weeks... but he's still successful with that curve... he's actually been very good since the rough start (yes, he's been a bit lucky) and has easily been worth the money. I wish someone would trade something of value for him but AA won't trade him.

    His main issue besides the luck has just been efficiency but he's never been an efficient pitcher.

    How many teams has Brandon Drury played for since the Braves traded him to the Diamondbacks? Seems we all get a dose of ex-Bravesitis weekly.

    I hope the hitters know that Walker has given up 14 runs in 10 innings in his last 3 starts…as he waddles off the mound back to the dugout.

    I somehow thought he was a Yankee (and a couple more places as well) too. Just know he's been around. I always had high hopes for him, but I think he suffered in the Rocket Wheeler Swing-o-Matic school of hitting.

    May have him confused with Nick Green maybe?

    I don't think you'll see a trade for a star as long as AA is here

    We'll see. I highly doubt any of the names AA would be willing to acquire are going to bring extra people to the ballpark.

    True. But a complete sell off and way below .500 play would decrease attendance

    The Braves marketing was genious, They recently ran a promotion at the start of this road trip that would give a 1% discount for every hit the Braves got in Philidelphia. So the Braves had a total of 37 hits and fans got to buy tickets for the remaining regular season home games at 37% off.

    Now there will be butts in the seats to see bad baseball
