Reds have a really good Top 3. And the back of their pen is elite. But aside from that, yeah they are not very good. Elly is really good overall player, but he's nothing amazing as a hitter. And considering he is probably their best hitter, that is a problem.

I'll pass on the aneurism and the autism.

I will say, it seems AA probably made this decision a while back, which is yet another sign of concern for me with him. One would have thought they could have announced this at least a month or 2 ago and let Snit have his swan song and a nice final day send off at the end of the season with a...

Acuna still out celebrating like it's 1999

Give me Baldelli (or Schumaker), or give me death.

I like TDA a lot. But I think I would rather not have him learn on the job while we're in our competitive window. If this were like 2017 and weren't expected to be competitive right away,. then sure, I would love to give him a shot. But we could lose a lot of close games next year as he tries to...

I got banned for a very mild disagreement with him on whether or not the Screaming Indian logo was racist. I think the worst thing I said was that one particular statement he made was rather ignorant. I then proceeded to log into all my alias accounts and blow him up the main board for the BS...

Yeah it's gonna take more than 2 seasons missing the playoffs for the Braves to move on from AA.

Again, it's not really a 4th OFer situation. We were already looking at Buxton a little over 2 months ago. It's blatantly obvious that Profar is a poor defender and that Acuna likely needs to DH more often to help keep him healthy. Ideally, we would rotate all 4 OFers enough so that none of them...

Acuna is likely going to DH more often regardless who we bring in and how much money they make. That's what happens to guys with 2 surgically repaired knees. And I think Acuna running less was probably a mutual decision there. Injuries and rehab take a large toll on players mentally. It's...

Ozuna has made more money than Acuna every year but this year.

I think I saw your SN on Volnation pop up. I assumed it was likely you.

I last recall it was AtlantaDugout or something like that when it transitioned away from Scout. I don't recall what it was on the Scout forums.

Yup, that was him. Hated Adam Dunn with a passion. To his credit, Dunn was indeed historically bad defensively. Since advanced defensive stats have been tracked, only Matt Kemp produced a lower DRS with at least 5000 innings played in the OF. I didn't give much credence to defensive stats back...

I recall Patio making some BS thread about how his "friend" got access to his count and it was his friend who was acting so crazy and banning people. LOL classic.

Who was it that hated Adam Dunn so much? I recall having so many arguments with him. Was that Tino?

I would be surprised to see Bellinger get 180 million. He might. But I would be surprised. Bellinger also wouldn't "rotate" in the sense that he would be platooning. It would be 4 guys (Profar, Baldwin, Acuna, and Murphy) sharing the DH duties. Bellinger would be expected play 140+ games in...

Bellinger fits perfectly fine. Profar and Acuna need to rotate at DH. But mostly Profar needs to DH.
