    Underlying metrics are very promising on Contreras. The only question is defense—but at least he's got athleticism, and has seemed to improve thus far.

    Also playing in an unfriendly hitter's park too. I think he'll do well with that porch in RF with us.

    I don't like trading Lango and we will be in the position as Olson as with Freeman in two years. So long FF. A sad day in Braves history!

    Love this trade.

    We are being run by an adult who isn't making emotional decisions.

    We could be a dynasty. 2-3-4 world titles in a row.

    Who cares about Waters anymore? He's barely even a prospect still. Harris is the one I'm glad we kept, although Lango hurts... really liked him.

    Perhaps AA feels he can actually get Olson to sign an extension.

    if not, then he’s trying to maximize this window. Fried gone soon. Anderson may regress. Morton is older.

    You would think it would be doable given its his hometown and he seems really excited to come back.

    Have to think FF probably jerked AA around a good bit for it to come to this.

    There is no way we didn't offer something competitive.

    With his suitors narrowing, does he get that 6th year?

    Don't matter. Strider and Tarnok going to be aces.

    Sorry for being so emotional but this news and Scott Hall dying makes this an emotional day.

    I agree with SJ24. Olson will be better offensively going forward. Now we have plenty of cash to add pieces.
    Our big league club is now going to be much better.
    No way to argue against that...

    I think AA knew he couldn’t and wouldn’t match LAD or NYY overall value.

    He pulled trigger on Olson before Freddie signed and the market for Olson heated up.

    I’m not arguing against that. I’m just saying that we’re not going to win 4 World Series in a ****ing row.l, no matter who our 1B is.
