Trades/acquisitions

[bravesfanMatt]

I could live with a pache for Buxton type deal. But I doubt we trade him. He still has too much potential. But I wouldn’t shoot my dog over it.

Marlins getting A-jax

Rosario and Duvall is basically acquiring an outfield platoon for Alex Jackson and Sandoval. Not really an impactful couple moves, but it could help.

Duvall makes sense, in a completely underwhelming sort of way.

Guys, let's please not post obvious jokes like the Rosario/Sandoval deal. It's a couple hours from the deadline and I'm looking for real news. Thanks.

Rosario career 111 wRC+ vs rhp

I'd be irate if I'm a Rockies fan. The Rockies already have a bottom 5 farm system, and they are content with Jon Gray and Trevor Story finishing out a 70-92 season and then letting them walk.

We all knew the Braves were going to do these types of moves with the money AA says he had to burn. Lmao. Meh

An off-handed shrug and "Eh, it's fine, I guess" is about what these moves warrant.

 

[UNCBlue012]

But didn't Mish adamantly declare the marlins weren't dealing with the Braves? Dude doesn't have the best track record.

yup lmao

Not shocking this is the route they would go. Have to focus on improving the bullpen now. Word is we’re considering ourselves out on Kimbrel.

I just don't understand what he provides that Almonte doesn't already provide. He literally cost nothing, so I suppose it doesn't really matter.

 

[bravesfanforlife88]

This means that there will be no Kris Bryant to Atlanta so we can put that to rest

 

[UNCBlue012]

I mean, I'm pretty happy getting Adam back given he's better than what we have but Rosario is odd. I guess it did rid us of Panda PH every damn night.

 

[bravesnumberone]

So will Rosario wear the panda hat while he’s sitting on the bench injured?

Source confirms: Braves get Adam Duvall from Marlins in addition to Eddie Rosario from Indians. Team also checked in on Kimbrel but does not see itself currently as a factor in the bidding. First on Duvall:

There was a 3 week period where I wanted Panda to get 1 PA every night, so he was entertaining for a while!

Maybe AA not convinced almonte can keep it up. I like almonte in panda's spot

The Dodgers trade for Max Scherzer and Trea Turner. And you wonder why one team is gearing up for a repeat. Meanwhile the Braves bring in Stephen Vogt, Joc Pederson, Adam Duvall, and an injured Eddie Rosario. None of these guys are full time players.
