I hope it isn't close to market value. It would be nice to have Swanson around 3-4 more years though.

 

[CJ9]

Heyman guesses 6/120. No thank you.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Dude gets to hit against Jacob and you’re ready to extend them

 

[thewupk]

I fully expect a deal to be announced after the game tonight

I think that’s decent value for Bae

Swanson fWAR last 3 seasons, and what it would be for 162 games...
2020: 2.2 fWAR/ 5.9 fWAR
2021: 3.4 fWAR/ 3.4 fWAR
2022: 5.1 fWAR current/ 6.9 fWAR

 

[Hudson2]

6/120 is probably fair

2021: 3.4 fWAR/ 3.4 fWAR

6/120 values Dansby as a 2.5 WAR player. I don’t mind that at all.

 

[Enscheff]

6/120 is about what he’s projected to get in a FA market where nobody does anything crazy.

I wouldn’t fault AA for locking that in to avoid any stupidity from other teams ruining the Braves off season, but I hope it’s more team friendly.

 

[Dalyn]

Would rather not sign Swanson.

 

[Hudson2]

If Swanson is resigned then Grissom has to play OF in the offseason.

 

[Hudson2]

Would rather not sign Swanson.

Depends on price. Cubs have already came out and said they’ll spend this offseason so that’ll leave Braves, Dodgers, Cubs for sure needing a SS. Mariners and a few others who are ready to compete will step up and do something stupid.

 

[GovClintonTyree]

If Swanson is resigned then Grissom has to play OF in the offseason.

That's why God created the Dominican Winter League.

 

[Russ2dollas]

It should be really clear to Swanson that if he wants to stay he should do it now.

Ozuna went to fa and was resigned and that’s not going well.

I don’t see why we’d do it if it wasn’t a deal.

6/120 is reasonable. I’d rather do 4/90 with some team options even if we pay more overall.

I think it’s going to have to be over 100 million for dansby to sign.

 

[Hudson2]

Dansby likes being here and is comfortable and sees what the long term plan is so as long as it’s close he’ll take it. He also saw how the FF stuff went.

 

[mossy]

Extent! ( I think?)

We can't underestimate how important that is. Freddie screwed up, but the other guys seem to have learned from the experience.

 

[bravesnumberone]

I'm a little on the fence here, but $20M per is not that bad compared to other numbers floated out there.

 

[The Tariff King]

I'm a little on the fence here, but $20M per is not that bad compared to other numbers floated out there.

I'd rather spend that 20 million to give raises to Ozzie and Ronald.
