    Heyman - Braves expected to shop veteran outfielders

    why not hold acuna out until 2020? get through both of these contracts and knowing the pitching will be horrible, there's no way this club is competing next year or probably the next. so why waste his time? i'm dead serious here. if folks are up in arms about saving service time, there's no...

    no. good god people, stop thinking that having pitching is a bad thing. hitters grow on trees. look at ronald acuna for example. all you need is to fill a few spots and you have a roster. you don't have anything if you don't have excellent pitching and you'll NEVER have excellent pitching...

    Albies

    thank you. camargo is either going to be in the lineup next year in atlanta or will be another in the long line of horrible give away trades. sadly i'm betting on the latter. i predict a former first round pick who can no longer lift his arm over his head will be the return. 'cause, you...

    Swanson

    but dansby's xfwobs% has moved down in the last two days as he's taken some walks that clearly wouldn't have been walks in half of the mlb stadiums. scrub.

    lots of guys out there to watch, to be sure. wilson, wright, touki, wentz. the list seems endless.

    Extending Swanson and Albies

    there's no way to know what kind of extension he might sign. frankly, if there was EVER a player that would sign a nice discount, it stands to reason it would be swanson. it's also just as possible that his camp values how the braves have handled him and would most certainly be willing to...

    Extending Swanson and Albies

    and you'd better have room in the budget in two years to sign acuna to a monster contract as well.

    MONDAY MINORS THREAD 9/4: And so it ends ...

    so, kevin maitan didn't exactly impress on the stat sheet. are there whispers of concern coming from danville or is everyone still as excited as ever about his "potential"? making no judgment here, so don't yell at me for "giving up" on a 17 year old.

    Luiz Henrique Gohara

    gohara, soroka, and allard could end up being a mighty good threesome. looking like 2020 could be the year.

    Kudos to Tyler Pike. He's 0-9 at Mississippi with a .228 BAA.

    Extending Swanson and Albies

    it'll be hilarious when in the long run the early promotion of swanson actually ends up meaning the braves saving money.

    How likely is Swanson to rebound?

    dansby hitting .328 in august with a bunch of walks and fewer strikeouts. even after how bad he was earlier on, he's better than the average replacement. i'd say it's pretty clear is promotion last year was the greatest thing to happen to this guy. look at how he's fought through the...

    Braves announce AFL players

    how are the reports on his progression at catcher?

    Kimbrel trade was as bad as any the Braves have ever made

    I'm guessing Matt Wisler's number's don't compare.

    acuna has played one game in august in which he didn't record a base hit.

    FRIDAY MINORS THREAD 8/25 ... Counting down final 10 days ...

    duh. he's clearly a better prospect by performance at this point. people just forgot what they had known about anderson and decided since he went so early in the draft he must be a better prospect than he had been a week prior when he could have been a late round pick. all that and wilson...
