    I just don't see a way that we are able to fill every need with an impact player if we only have like $35M or so left. If we're closer to $50M (which isn't likely), then sure. Maybe we do a big trade and take care of two needs at once, but that's not Alex's MO. I think people need to be OK (even...

    Yeah, Buxton definitely seems like a long shot, but there’s no doubt he’d be a perfect fit, and the contract is totally manageable. That would reasonably leave enough for another impact starter or bullpen arm. Acuña RF/DH Buxton OF/DH Olson 1B Riley 3B Profar LF/DH Baldwin/Murphy C Albies 2B...

    We'll see what happens! All of the assuming is silly anyway, given most of the board seems to take that shit as Gospel.

    Based on this, we’re realistically talking about roughly $25M–$45M to work with, assuming they keep around $10M set aside for the trade deadline. So, with the payroll almost certain to clear the $244M tier-one threshold and potentially push up toward the $264M second tier, we’re likely looking...

    The #Braves today agreed to terms with INF Vidal Brujan on a one-year, split contract for the 2026 season.

    To be fair, the Braves have already spent close to as much this offseason as last year lmao

    This is why I think Suarez, Fairbanks or someone like them needs to be the move. One of those guys plus Iggy at the back end with Dylan Lee as an option is really strong. Bring in another reliable arm and we're cooking. Hell, I'm guessing one of Holmes or ReyLo end up there anyways.

    I just cannot imagine he gives up the pick AND pays the salary. The pick being No. 28 with the value attached to it is hard to move. Cease would probably be the only guy he'd consider using it for though...

    That's normal. Players often put good teams on their no-trade because they know those are the teams most likely to be adding and it’s a nice little extra payday when it gets negotiated.

    I saw Spotrac had Fairbanks' projection at three years, $41M, so about $13.5M per year. Honestly, that's a near perfect move for Atlanta unless they can get Suarez to sign a two-year, $25M deal or something close to it.

    He told us this like a month ago haha regardless, it's definitely not "good" by any means, but it'll be interesting to see what we hear in January when AA expects more concrete news. The Braves need to hope for the best but expect the worst. It's hard to know exactly where the money stands...

    It sounds like Alex expects him to be super utility at this point

    The #Braves today acquired INF Mauricio Dubón from the Houston Astros in exchange for INF Nick Allen If he's utility, amazing move. If he's our starting SS, yikes

    Per sources, Raisel Iglesias received offers from the Dodgers and Blue Jays worth around $16 million, but ultimately chose to return to the Braves.

    I think the Braves will be in on one of the bigger bullpen arms still or at least the second-tier. It's hilarious AA said bullpen is his third concern and he addressed it first lmao

    It's also possible he's checking in on literally everyone because that's what a GM is supposed to do. lmao
