    Taking the guy sucks argument is going to be right way more times than it is wrong. That said. In AAA at 22 years old Grissom is 327/412/494. The last half of the year is even better. He has made some errors at SS. He's 6'2 and 200+ pounds. Likely will grow into more power. I don't know...

    Grissom keeps hitting. Maybe he's not slugging a ton....If he really is a good avg/obp hitter with limited power, that could be helpful in this lineup. Can he play LF? Would he do better than a 750 OPS? Most likely trade bait now we have he kid from KC. But we shall see if AA thinks the bat...

    GDT 8/10/23: Braves @ Pirates

    I don't know the rules on all of the roster moves, but i hope so. I'd like all of our non Max Fried starters to get skipped once this month. They all need time off.

    2023 Misc Braves Talk

    I agree and have agreed. Guy hardly had any at bats at a high major level. Hardly saw any MLB quality breaking balls until he got up here. I honestly feel the same way about Grissom. I was not sold he was an impact bat. Still not sold. But I'm moving toward the idea that he will be an...

    Sadly I think he is going to be the max replacement in 2025.

    I agree with this. We do not have any top 100 guys. We do ajss. Not sure if they will move him for a rental. He is an option for a playoff pen arm. We have Grissom. He might be hard to deal as our only option who can maybe hit if there is an injury to anyone. We have our first round picks...

    I didn’t see a guy moved that would definitely be on the post season roster for a price I’d want to pay. Now I admit I’m a Braves fan and I do not watch other teams. So maybe I’d feel differently if I knew their stats. Just looking at names and costs and contracts.

    Aa is worried about depth if you get an injury. We have a lot of it’s just a guy to fill in innings. Not a lot of guys who are going to make our playoff roster moving. Not a lot required to upgrade our pitching from the last several playoff appearances. If fried is fried then we have an...

    I’m not upset at the deadline. I really wanted impact guys and not many were moved. Doubt the Mets deal fairly with us. We beat them so bad they are not going to try again for a couple of years. We also have a weak farm so it’s tough to pay when there is a sellers market. This expansion of the...

    Trade deadline thread

    Seems like a great deal to me. Our pen has good numbers. I’m not as worried as most on the board. I do know there are way more innings to cover in the playoffs so I live deals like this at a low cost. Hand can take out a big time lefty and I think he can do ok vs righties to get through the...

    Arm thing is interesting. AA may be traumatized by the last couple of playoffs where he has been forced into a lot of pen games. He also mentions if you don’t do it now you can’t get guys after the deadline for help of injury. That said we typically use 3-4 starters in playoffs. We don’t need...

    I don’t see the point in adding another guy to dh and lf. If you make a move I think you need to get someone who is taking over that spot. A real upgrade.

    Braves trade for Pierce Johnson

    I know vodnik isn’t great. Seems like a lot to give up for a rental. I know there is some premium to do it now vs deadline. I just figured when I saw it took a guy I’ve heard of and another player was we had two arb years.
