    1. Limited market for him
    2. They can’t get the draft pick anymore

    So maybe they take the poo poo platter of Ruiz wisler etc
    They could get more at the deadline, if we make a move and are in it, i dont see 3B being a spot we look to upgrade at.

    Bullpen is where i think AA targets.

    Sanchez knows that this team is going to get a look at their young players...as long as Soroka has no issues the rotation spot should be his, and I think Sanchez would understand.
    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.

    If Ender had a chance to come to the plate with runners on, he may actually get a hit or he gets walked and clears the pitchers spot. So then Albies leads off anyways... wut.

    I don't care much one way or the other. But celebrating Inciarte getting to leadoff as smart construction when the pitchers has had 6 people on base so far seems... odd

    Because the Braves decided to bat the pitcher 8th.

    That’s all he needs to know, and no other information is needed. He will like it, he will find a way to praise it, and he will defend it until the Braves do something else lol.

    I’m willing to bet some searching can find an instance where he said it was dumb when another team did it

    Soroka with a big strikeout there. Great job and good pitch count.
