    Serious question. Is it really that much fun to come to a fan message board all day just to ridicule people who are fans of the same team you are? Seems like you find more enjoyment in that and proving yourself right than rooting for the team in the first place.

    First of the last 4 regular season games at Suntrust this season. Hope we take at least 2 of 4
    This is very likely my favorite lineup and configuration tbh

    It's the only thing in life he finds enjoyment in, don't ruin it for him.

    Honestly, if Swanson can give us a .700+ OPS with his defense we have ourselves an incredibly undervalued asset.

    You just described a roughly 2 win player, which is valuable through all his years of control.

    FWIW, Swanson currently ranks 18 out of 21 qualified MLB SS in terms of WAR.

    I suppose that depends how you feel about UZR. I prefer DRS as a defensive component and his bWAR is 2.4

    Baseball reference definetely likes the braves more. Anyone added the WAR from each site to see who's more accurate on the braves?

    They like the defense more.

    Overall the Braves fWAR is 38.6. Their bWAR is 38.1

    Braves have won 84 games and according to fWAR they should have 83.1 and according to bWAR they should have 83.6.

    So yeah it checks out.

    With 18 relievers available, will we see a call to the BP with no one throwing??? We've seen that before. I think Snitckers got tossed arguing the length of time given the new thrower.
