He, Ozzie, and Harris shouldn't be back. This deadline should have one goal - get rid of Harris. Do what it takes and don't bring Ozzie back.

I get that you’re irritated, but realistically, what would the Braves get for Harris? You think a team is going to trade much of any value for him? A guy on a multi year deal struggling at the plate? Braves would have to fork over a good bit of cash and would be lucky to get a top ten prospect.
Harris and at least a couple others need a voice they can listen to in improving their offense. I don’t know who that is, but it’s not Tim Hyers. I don’t know what he’s teaching, but it’s screwed up this offense. And I’m afraid it’s in some guys heads now. Should have never let go of Kevin Seitzer. I didn’t understand it then and I sure don’t now.

Well, you may want it, and I’m sure you are not alone, but not gonna happen. He more than anyone else needs another voice to work with him that’s not Tim Hyers

Also, if you’re making trading Harris the one goal at the deadline, then this trading period is an unmitigated failure

Nothing will happen at the break anyway according to this
MLB insider reveals Braves trade deadline intentions
The Braves are closer to the bottom team in the National League than the Wild Card, and it's fair to wonder what they'll do at the trade deadline. Buying

We’re 20 days from the deadline. We often see these things change. There’s no reason to believe this team will turn it around. AA may have to come to the realization that it’s going to take more than deals involving Ozuna and Iglesias to get the pieces to help this team get back in 2026. By month’s end, he could very well listen to offers on Johnson, Bummer, and even Murphy. Is that a guarantee? No, it’s not. But considering where this team is at, it may very well come to that.Nothing will happen at the break anyway according to this

Strider isn't necessarily "back" per se, but he's given up 3 runs or less in every start since June 8. 7 starts and 42.2 innings. 11.6 K/9, 3.38 bb/9, .63 hr rate, 3.16 ERA, 2.55 FIP, and 2.92 xFIP.
He may not quite be back to the Strider we knew, but he's getting closer each start it seems like. And the results have been good, regardless.

Shea Langeliers is pretty solid. Ritchie is probably our 3rd best prospect right now. Murphy was on his way to being our top prospect before the injury.
