Braves Acquire Tommy Milone

[TheBravos]

Meh, we got rid of Matt Adams so you can't say it wasn't a total nothing burger

Win/Win

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

Who replacing him? Have we acquired milone or not?

Yes, Adams was DFAed to make room for Milone

Thanks.

Win/Win

Correct....I have had enough of watching Adams as DH

 

[clvclv]

Matt Adams DFA’d

Makes you wonder whether Snitker was playing opossum a little when saying Ozzie's "a week away"...can't imagine they'd create a 40-Man Roster spot to add Schebler to replace Adams.

Milone last pitched on Tuesday. When you think he gets 1st braves' start?

Anderson and Fried are scheduled to go Monday and Tuesday, provided he passes his physical, i think Wednesday.

Tomorrow in Boston.

Will be on regular rest, and will keep everyone else that way.

Are you saying everyone not on 60 man has no value?

I hope it’s two guys not on our top 50 prospects

I never said they dont have value. You act like everyone we trade away will become Mike Trout. It's two players to be named later for a pitcher who can eat innings. This rotation needed at least 2 starters imo. I dont see how you can even argue that.

Probably picking from guys like Riley/Devito/Owens/Estes/Vines/etc..

Doubt it’s two of those guys.

Can we now sign Puig!

 

[Garmel]

Can we now sign Puig!

He'd make an excellent platoon partner with Duvall due to his reverse splits.

 

[Enscheff]

This is the generic pitcher to soak up innings we all expected AA to get. Hopefully there is one more arm on the way, and hopefully that arm is a bit more impactful.

Either way, this was needed and is a welcome addition.

Bc it’s two guys.

I hope they are two nobodies

Price of pitching might be very high

If it was one ptbnl I would not have blinked

For this type of guy we are talking 5 starts, maybe 25 innings

I do agree. Better today than yesterday

It's most likely two nobodies. Even if they turn out to be stars, thats trades, and **** happens.

This reminds me of the board meltdown when the Braves gave up Joey Nation in a trade (can't even remember which trade).

This is likely two guys even less impactful than Joey Nation.

For a guy who averages less than 5IP, and whose fastball averages 85-87mph, it better lol....

 

[Enscheff]

Anybody who’s anybody is on the 60 man, and only those 60 players can be traded right now. The fact these guys are PTBNLs probably means they aren’t on the 60 man.
