    Any Information on Non-Roster Invites to Spring Training

    I see that reports are filtering in for other teams and I was wondering if the Braves have released anything regarding who may come to camp as a non-roster invite. Expecting a few extra catchers and some pitching prospects (and Acuna), but I was hoping to see some candidates for 4th OF (at least to start the season).

    Actually wondered if we might see Pache get an invite as a bit of a "we're watching you closely" hat tip.

    Wouldn't expect him to be in camp long, but given the lack of other OF prospects that are even close to ready that might get an invite (Peterson and ???), it would certainly let him know that he could be fast-tracked like Acuna if he shows improvement with the bat.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Really love that Pache and Contreras received invites.

    Oh dang I can't wait to see some of those position players, especially Contreras. He is my dark horse to jump up into the top 100 by the end of the year. I think he could be the answer for us at catcher long term.

    Going to see what I can do to sneak down, but will probably get to be there for a week to 10 days at most.

    yeah, look forward to NOT going to Disney this year. with my daughter taking a break from competitive cheer and only doing middle school, we won't be going down to Disney for the first time in 4 years. We went twice the last two years... good god I was burnt out on that place.

    unfortunately, she hates middle and going back to competitive cheer. So it will be a fleeting break.
