2018 Trade Deadline ROSTERBATION

[striker42]

FWIW, Ender's BABIP this season is .269. The last three seasons, in over 500 PAs in each, Ender's BABIPs have been .329, .329, .339.

Also, Ender's BB rate is at a career high 8.1% and his K rate is 13.6% (it was 13.1% last year). So, Ender is walking a little more and striking out at essentially the same rate as last year.

His hard hit ball% is also at a career high 26%.

With Ender's BABIP at about 60 points below his career average, and no real alarming trends in his other stats, it's safe to say he's been pretty unlucky. He's due to improve in a big way in the second half.

Ender's drop in BABIP is partly due to his sudden change in batted ball profile.

His 22.8% career LD% has dropped to 19.7%, and his 33/33/33 pull/center/opp spray profile has shifted to 40/34/26.

One of the main ways batters beat their xwOBA (something Ender has consistently done) is by spraying the ball around, and Ender became a little too pull happy early in the year. The good news is he seems to have corrected that issue for the most part, and I expect him to be his usual .320 wOBA self the 2nd half.

He is a decent lead off option vs RHed SPs if the Braves refuse to bat Markakis in the 1 hole.

Did you...like disappear from the board last winter?

I thought there was major difference in the enthusiasm for Sale and Archer as there should have been.

Might be mistaken.

Fulmer to the DL with an oblique. Good news for those of us who don’t want him.

Probably only cost us Acuna and Wright now.

I think Jenkins and MAdams would get it done. Makes too much sense not to happen.

Familia trade nearing completion with unknown team

Ken Rosenthal speculates it’s Oakland.

[UNCBlue012]

It’s not us, though Crasnick just confirmed we were interested. Classic, Braves. Would have been a good pickup IMO.

We'll get our reliever(s). It'll be a buyer's market

lefty is the priority

[bravesfanMatt]

lefty is the priority

He is busy in Scotland this weekend.

[Perfect Cell]

I think we might be better off with a starter than a reliever. But hope we do get any help.

Oakland has been confirmed as the team in agreement with the Mets. Still waiting on names. I don't expect it to be for much, so I'm sure people on here will be mad we didn't match the price.

I saw Mateo as one of the names on twitter rumored, but i'm not sure how true that is.

I didnt want Familia, he's jeckle/hyde, and Hand and Cimber for Mejia would have put a dent in our farm for that cost.

There's still a buttload of RP's out there for the Braves that they should be able to get at a reasonable cost.

Cross another one off the board.

I think there’s a chance we do nothing.
