2025-2026 offseason thread

We also had stacked teams in 22 and 23 that were wasted by Snit’s inept management.

He made good deadline deals too.

AA deserves some blame for Snit’s mismanagement.

The offseason isn't over my guy

There is often a lack of reading comprehension (or pure laziness) on this board that will be studied one day. Just go back and read my prior posts, man.

Your crying about shit that hasn't happened yet.

As much as we all love to shit on Snit. And I certainly was not a fan. He's not the reason those teams forgot how to hit and the reason Fried and Strider seemingly can't pitch in the playoffs.

While that is somewhat valid, keeping Bryce Friggin Elder in the game during game 3 when he was getting absolutely rocked is 100% a loss on him.

Both can be true. Snit was a net negative and the teams forgot how to play in October those years.

And the year before with Strider coming back from injury and dropping velocity.

A Bichete deal makes a lot of sense to me

AA wanted snit back, and he hired snit 2.0, so AA doesn't get a pass for snit

And Ozzie being a question mark, he makes even more sense

you guys did catch the part where it said IF THE DEAL MADE SENSE.... there is no QO FA that will make sense because the money will be too much for AA to stomach.

Yea.. once he hired Weiss he lost that benefit of doubt when we previously thought he was stuck with Snit

got a grammar nazi over here

Good point.

The "right deal" for AA: bichette for 3 years 21 million

Left out the cut for the Atlanta Braves Foundation

Bichette and Dubón would be a lot better than Albies and Dubon but Albies ain't going anywhere next year. Hopefully he rebounds but AA will for sure get another SS. If Cease would have been around the 25-27 per range I think AA would have moved on it but he was smart to not touch 30.

Right. So when he doesn’t sign anyone that takes the pick away, he can just say a deal that made sense never materialized. That pick isn’t going anywhere.

 

[Hudson2]

AA is saying the rotation is looking a lot better now than it was this time last year and is not as urgent. Dude is so annoying.

I agree... Just don't see them giving that pool money away for any of the FA out there and I also don't see them giving out the contracts that those FA's are going to command.
