    Braves stretch thread

    Braves are a .500 team for the first time in a long time. We are 10 games out of the division so let's rule that out as a possibility. We are 6 games out of the 2nd wild card spot held by the Rockies. We will play the following teams with no days off coming up:

    July 17-19 vs cubs (lead us by a half game)
    July 20-23 @ dodgers
    July 24-26 @ Arizona (currently hold the number 1 position)

    With the trade deadline a few days following the complet of this stretch, of course copy will more than likely wait until the stretch is done before deciding on any moves.

    What records do you think we have to go to come out of this stretch with a legit chance, hence, making us buyers at the deadline.

    This thread should be pretty interesting to watch over the next 10 days or so

    Buyers?

    6-4, 7-3.

    If we implode and go say, 3-7/2-8 or so. Then yeah move everyone with 1 year of control for some lottery prospects.

    By the end of the stretch if we are 2-3 games back, I say go for it. If we are around the 5-6 games back I say do a mix of buy and sell. Maybe sell of a Phillips, Adams, Garcia etc. and if we are 8+ games out, I'd sell everything possible off and turn over to the kids
