    Trades/acquisitions

    We need to be sellers. We won’t of course. AA will make some trades that won’t really move the needle and likely hold on to everyone. If we “do” make trades, I hope they at least help next years roster (like when we added all the bullpen pieces a few years back).

    GDT 7-5 : Mad Max brings his hot bat!

    They keep sucking you guys in right before another gut punch. I can’t get Bally Sports this year and I was mad at first…now I’m kinda thankful. Would be mad sooo many nights this year lol.

    Soroka Tears Achilles Tendon Again, Out for Season

    Every report alluded he was in the package and they ask for more than that. It wasn’t much of a secret…but ok…I do not want to follow you down this rabbit hole. It doesn’t really matter lol. I’m just glad he wasn’t traded.

    Soroka Tears Achilles Tendon Again, Out for Season

    The only reason Ozzie wasn’t moved for Darvish was the other pieces in addition to him and the fact that the Cubs overpaid by even more (what a gut punch that would have been). I always loved Ozzie and would have been hacked off if they traded him, but after the Dansby trade + Ozzie’s elbow….he...

    Soroka Tears Achilles Tendon Again, Out for Season

    Right, but also remember that they were never too high on Ozzie and he was nearly traded(for a pitcher lol). I also doubt they could foresee Acura’s epic rise at that point. I’m not against drafting pitching…you of course really need that. If you look at the Astros, Cub, Padres etc. (they went...

    Soroka Tears Achilles Tendon Again, Out for Season

    Take away Acuna and Ozzie (who were before the rebuild)…and it looks different. It’s been successful no doubt. No argument. How much more successful would it have been if they went a different route? Probably more than can be proven. Remember, we would have still drafted some of these same...

    Soroka Tears Achilles Tendon Again, Out for Season

    Enscheff was 100% correct. Although I wouldn’t personally choose the rebuild route the Braves took around heavy pitching…I felt it could be defended. It is coming painfully clear that it cannot. They have even had decent success and it’s still painful. Fried was a bit of a lottery ticket coming...

    GDT 6/23: THE WRIGHT STUFF

    He will be traded to the Giants at the deadline, where he will become an all star.

    Soroka Tears Achilles Tendon Again, Out for Season

    If he “is” somehow able to make it back in late 2022 or 2023. Will he already be like arb 2, or is the time served on hold because he isn’t playing.

    Soroka Tears Achilles Tendon Again, Out for Season

    Guys…just wave the white flag already. It’s.not.our.year. At least let’s get this cursed mojo out all in one year. I’ll say this, as much as we are upset….imagine being Soroka. I feel so bad for him. He’s likely done. I do not know of any pro athlete to come back from two of these (name someone...

    GDT: Braves @ reds

    Of course we are better than this…injuries have decimated the Braves. Sometimes it’s just not your year and that’s ok. With the right moves(and a little luck), we will be right back in contention next year. We have toiled a tad under .500 all year. Unless we see a huge turn around in July…I do...

    GDT: Braves @ reds

    Almost July. They are what they are at this point. They will be too far out for it to matter for who comes back in August.

    Dang…I forgot about that. Ouch.

    GDT 6/23: THE WRIGHT STUFF

    Depends on what the get is, but he doesn’t feel as “untreatable” as in the past.

    GDT 6/23: THE WRIGHT STUFF

    I remember how most thought he was a absolute steal at even five.

    GDT 6/23: THE WRIGHT STUFF

    I think it’s a mental block with Wright. They would likely be better off to give him a new start somewhere if the “Wright” deal came along.

    GDT 6/16 vs Red Sox

    It’s not over, but it’s close. The good news is that we have plenty of expiring contracts, so things can be fixed next year with the right moves.

    GDT 6/16 vs Red Sox

    I’m not watching the game , but just saw the replay. Gave it up on a 1-2 count. Holy Moly.

    GDT 6/16 vs Red Sox

    I mean….this is what this team does. Is anyone surprised? They play close games and surrender leads and lose. AA can make trades to improve this team at the deadline, but the moves made should have next season in mind. I just don’t see this team improving to the point that they are an actual...
