    2025 Around The League Thread

    I'd honestly rather the game end in a tie. I don't care who wins the AS game. It's just for fun.

    2025 Around The League Thread

    Roberts would choose a 9 year old in the left field stands before a Brave.

    MLB Draft Thread

    I don't have strong feelings about this draft. Hard to have any idea what an athletic prep SS will become. I will say I don't love going so far underslot early. It's our organizational philosophy but I feel like we miss out on some higher end guys because of it.

    Hey, we filled the hole in our system Braden Shewmake left when we traded him.

    Braves And MLB Mid Season Grades

    I'm not sure there's been a more under achieving team in baseball in the last three years. What a disappointment.

    GDT 6-12: Nacho Average Lineup

    A lot of people don't get this. But my worst in person game experience was against the Cards. The umps were obscenely in their favor and the Cards fans in attendance just treated it as their expected due.

    GDT 7/8: Braves in a AAA stadium

    This team has given up. Can't say I blame them.

    2025 Trade Deadline Thread

    The Rays could use a boost at C and have Carson Williams, a SS and their top prospect at AAA. Not crazy about his K rate but he's supposed to be a gold glove quality SS and elite defense and his power would play at SS. I don't think we end up trading Murphy but there are potential matches. AA...

    GDT 7/5: Marcell Moves Down; Will Today be a Bummer?

    There's not a deader team in baseball. This team isn't remotely fun to watch.

    So...what are y'all's best overall theories as to what's happened (and why) in both the micro and the macro, to our braves since our world series run?

    The problem has to be with the coaching staff based on how systemic the problems are. We're not talking about the wheels coming off for one guy, something that happens. We're talking about multiple former all stars sharply declining at ages they shouldn't be declining. You have to pay that at...

    7/1 GDT …..

    This offense is just embarrassing. Blow it up at the deadline so at least we'll have the excuse of playing young guys.

    2025 Trade Deadline Thread

    I move Murphy, Ozuna, and, if anyone would take him, Iglesias. Get as much talent in positions of weakness for us as we can (notably SS and OF). I also wouldn't have Olson off limits. He's signed for a bit but that contract could look ugly soon.

    So...what are y'all's best overall theories as to what's happened (and why) in both the micro and the macro, to our braves since our world series run?

    I think Washington was the guy making sure everyone did their work and we're prepared for the games. I think when he left we had guys slack off, hence the multiple guys declining even though they aren't at an age you'd expect it. You can definitely see a laziness on this team that wasn't there...

    GDT 6/28: Harris Not In The Lineup

    Two things. First, I have no idea how Ranger Suarez gets people out. Dude has the arsenal of a number 5 starter. Second, I'll say it again, this is not a serious team. If AA doesn't sell he should be fired.

    6/27: Phillies game 1

    This team is not good. We're fooling ourselves to think otherwise. We need to sell. AA needs to get everything he can for the likes of Murphy and Ozuna and then move Snit out of the manager role in the off-season (no reason to do it now, this season is over). Let's shoot for 2026.

    6/27: Phillies game 1

    I'll say it again, this is not a serious team. Snit has lost his touch on keeping guys plugged in. Happens to the best. Time to move on and sell.

    GDT 6/26/25: Braves @ Mets: Win The Series Holmes

    We should be sellers. This team isn't serious about competing this year. We need to trade excess pieces and try again next year

    GDT 6/24/25: Braves @ Mets - Are we about to hit our STRIDer?

    Our bad luck and the Phillies good luck is maddening.

    GDT 6/20/25: Braves @ Marlins - Keep Streakin' for Didi

    It's amazing that we got Acuna back producing at near record levels and the rest of this team is so lifeless that it has barely moved the needle.
