Official 2022 Offseason Moves Thread

Enscheff said:
Depending on how the Braves track buy outs, the current payroll is about $142M. I have no idea how they will project revenue in 2022 and beyond, but I would not be surprised at any 2022 payroll value under $180M. That leaves around $35M-$40 to spend with a hole in LF, the rotation, and a bench bat.

They could do Greinke ($10M), Conforto ($20M) and Joc ($10M) I think. That would be a pretty stout roster.

The lack of infield depth scares me more than the outfield. There are a lot of options for the outfield still available (Soler, Rosario, Peterson, Conforto, Castellanos, Schwarber). There are no good free agent options for infield depth IMO. The team needs an upgrade over Arica. After the trade today I’m not sure we have the prospects to find a backup infielder. Hopefully some options will come available at the end of spring training.

This is a good point. With Ozuna at DH, the remaining bench spot should probably be an IFer. Someone like Brad Miller would fit well.

I think the FO has made it perfectly clear they are in love with Arcia. No idea why, but they really love that dude.

It should’ve been Adrianza.

Honestly, I wonder if they were pissed that he left in the middle of the World Series.
 
Gomez: Carlos Baerga said on his IG Live that Freddie Freeman will be signing with the Blue Jays, who according to Baerga, could experimenting Vladdy Jr. in other positions.

Baerga broke Marcus Semien and Yimi Garcia's signing and Berrios contract extension.

MLB Network showed Vlad taking grounders at third.

My one concern now with Freeman, since there appear to be so few suitors left, is that he will end up signing a contract for a price/years we could have all lived with.

It’s possible…He’s all over ESPN and MLB now and quite frankly it’s getting annoying…Just sign some where dude…wtf are you delaying and continuing to hold out…Sh*t ain’t cute.
 
Fred appears to have bought into his own hype.

If he really wanted to stay it would have happened before the lockout.

Otherwise it's just your regular PR talk from player x

Feels like it to me too. Great player, but he isn't prime Pujols, Trout, or ARod. Then again maybe he just wants out of an outdoors summertime job in the South. I can't blame if that's the case.

I dunno..:Hard to turn your back to a region of America that idolizes you…easier for some I guess. I’ll never fault the man for chasing his worth but I think he didn’t want to be here and handled it poorly.
