    2025 Trade Deadline Thread

    I'm not adverse to making the playoffs..lmao. The "if" game is prevalent with AA apologists. The end result for those who give af, is that this team hasn't been trending up. It's been mediocre. That's my point. I don't get giddy just because we limped into the playoffs. The big prize is the...

    2025 Trade Deadline Thread

    This team was a 77% win team for two months last year. Specifically March and April in which they were 19-8. They played 55% baseball the rest of the way. They had no shot to win the world series. So yes...it's been more than a year of mediocre baseball. Saying they made the playoffs is cool...

    Been trying to find that out. But the Braves were releasing a few minor league players first so news should come shortly.

    Burn it down is harsh, but this seems to be a trade deadline almost like last years failed deadline moves (non moves). Nothing has or hadn't happened yet, but shit play hasn't been a one year deal. It's been longer than that in the making. Cumulating in the abomination we see before us.

    2025 Trade Deadline Thread

    I've skipped the entire argument but is there someone saying AA has been good over the last year and a half at least? I will humbly accept flames for my thought, but AA has been mid to less over that span. So say, GM's aren't perfect. I get that, but injuries aside, the flaws of shopping in the...

    Not speaking for him, but if AA continues to accumulate the dearth of AAAA talent he's trafficked in this year, he will indeed be fucking up.😂😂

    Yeah but if height was the only requisition to figuring out things, you draft all power forwards. I like him enough but he's not top 5 in this system to me. Not a bad thing. He's highly regarded by many people. I've seen him 4 times. He's got things going for him, but I'm slowly coming around in...

    Eh. I like his plane to home plate. He's on top of hitters with his stride. Huge. I'm a little more underwhelmed than most but it's because I think his effectiveness in certain quadrants of the zone need polishing. Perhaps top 5-10 starting pitchers in the organization. I need him to...

    When it comes to the international guys, I'm usually about a 3 year in kinda guy. International guys have so many things working against them including, level of comp, training conditions, age, language barriers. They get in the system and play against much better players who've played against...

    I'm happy for that kid. According to Gaurav, he had an EV of 103 on one of the singles and hits to left, center and right. I wrote about him and Guanipa last week and if they can continue to show the adjustments just slightly, they will be fine as prospects. I guess drafting 10 SS's will light...

    Fair point. There's so much splitting hairs though. From fans. From scouts. From experts. It is what it is. I don't know how many of you watch as many prospects as I do (which means nothing), but I've witnessed our system consistently for the last 10 years...I've seen the guys the Braves loved...

    Not to get into the squabble affair that's taking place, but there is nothing wrong with questioning a strategy that goes against the grain of what seems to be a straight on strategy. If the guy you believe is talented and is the BPA, I personally don't fk around to save money for lesser...

    At the end of the day it only takes one team to fall in love with a player. They got talent, but yes...some weren't viewed as highly as the Braves had them but that's the science of why the Braves do things the way they do. 2 teams were in on The #1 pick in the latter part of round one. A lot...
