    we should get rid of 99% of all regulations and let the weak die and the strong survive like evolution designed us to be.

    Baseball Prospectus Top 101 Prospects

    actually your entire argument is a fallacy as you are using the past to make assumptions on the future as if they are rules (they aren't) not to mention requiring that we prove the neagtive when you have yet to prove your claim that the Braves will not draft a guy with more value than the...

    Objectively ranking the top farm systems

    I DO think the Braves have a decent chance to stay in the #1/2 farm argument even after Swanson gets dropped from lists just due to the sheer volume of top 300 guys we have. It wouldn't take much for Touki, Acuna,Demerrite, Riley, Newcomb...etc to move into the top 50 discussion and suddenly...

    Baseball Prospectus Top 101 Prospects

    I wanted Lewis too, but the strategy used by the Braves was hardly "signability" it was an attempt to get as many high upside picks as they could due to the unknowns of young pitching. I wanted a bat, but their method was hardly some bad thing.

    Yeah, like those first 3 guys we drafted last year (Andersons, Wentz, Muller) who are all on or near Sickel's top 200 list.......

    Baseball America Top 100

    My favorite position prospect is Acuna, if his power develops, we could be looking at a guy with skills near that of Andruw. (tho probably not at quite that level) 4-6 WAR player tho with his defense, bat and speed. that'll work!

    Braves to acquire Brandon Phillips

    which is odd as the majority of fantasy baseball leagues use the old traditional stats..... I thought maybe the fantasy baseball people were mad cuz he left great american ballpark and thus his stats might go down or something.....

    BP's 2017 PECOTA projections

    I would put the odds of this happening at under 5%. Our rotation is avg, our lineup below avg, defense below avg and base running avg at best. we are lacking in power, OBP heck looking at our lineup only Kemp,Freeman and Swanson project to exceed a 100 wRC+. not to mention the bench is awful...

    BP's 2017 PECOTA projections

    Back to the team win projections. I see 76ish as a pretty darn good mid point. I could see them winning 70 and I could see em winning 81-82 it all depends on how they do early. If they are under .500 in July, we will see them trade off as many veterans as they can and the record will move...

    Braves to acquire Brandon Phillips

    it's a done deal, the braves retained his no trade and gave him some extra $$$ (hearing $500k assignment bonus) so he has a no trade clause still.
