    Again, AA and his front office don't leak anything. So any leaked information is likely just posturing by the agent of that player to get a better deal.

    Soroka, Schuster, Shewmake and Lopez to the White Sox for Aaron Bummer

    They clearly lost all confidence in Shuster. He was a first round pick not too long ago and it feels like they just added him to this trade as a throw in.

    And the article on MLB.com about the Braves being awarded the all star game makes no reference of it being taken away from them a few years earlier.

    Since we know AA and his front office never leak anything, the news of the interest in Nola and Gray seems like something those players agents put out there to help inflate their markets.

    The Angels are interviewing Braves third base coach Ron Washington tonight as they continue their managerial search, reports Sam Blum of the Athletic

    I was just thinking the same. Most other teams have announced their decisions by now.

    As expected: Texas' extra-inning comeback victory over Arizona on Friday night was the least-watched Game 1 in World Series TV history.

    Braves re-sign Pierce Johnson

    The fact that they plucked him form the Rockies, one of the worst organizations, and immediately corrected him and made him nearly elite gives me hope.

    Wouldn't mind seeing the Rangers win since they are one of the few franchises who hasn't won a title yet.

    I kind of disagree that there is a lot of room for improvement. This team had a historically great offense. The pitching was strong as well but got derailed for the most part by injuries. For most of the reason the bullpen was a strength as well. As we can see from the world series matchup, the...

    Reports have said that our old friend Ryan Flaherty is the front runner lol

    After Will Smith was completely dominant in 2021 playoffs after being very shaky the entire season, I no longer ask questions like this lol.

    Was reading about the projected salaries for Braves players eligible for arbitration. Nicky Lopez is projected to get nearly $4 million. Which is double what Arcia will make next year. Not sure how that's going to work if they planned to retain Lopez.

    Ozuna and Rosario will both be in contract years next year (Ozuna has a team option for the following year) so I expect both to have extra motivation to perform next year. Fried is also in a contract year. Enjoy him while we can because he's good as gone after next year. Hopefully he can have...

    A run in the making

    Thanks for the perspective. I'll add some of my own. If you would have told me back in 2017, that the Braves were about to win 6 division titles and a world series, and be poised to continue that run of dominance into the future, I would have thought you were crazy, but signed up for it in a...

    Snell is going to be a huge mistake for whichever team signs him as well.

    Again, I'm not advocating for Snitker. In fact his contributions to the clubhouse are probably over rated as well. The common theme is the players seem to love playing for him, is there actually any evidence of that? Seems like if anything he just stays out of the way to keep the peace in the...

    There is no answer. The Dodgers are the model organization, are great every season, have the model manager in Dave Roberts, and can't seem to rise up to the moment every post season either.

    GDT 10/12/23: Braves @ Phillies - NLDS Game 4 Striders Revenge

    What's interesting about both of those teams is neither was even hot down the stretch. They both faltered and almost missed the playoffs entirely. So can't use the narrative either of those teams got hot down the stretch and stormed through the playoffs.

    You're correct. And look even the most praised managers like Dave Roberts and Kevin Cash flamed out in the playoffs this year. Roberts has a top payroll and best team almost every year and is a perennial loser in the playoffs. Where is that master tactician Gabe Kapler this year? I'm not a...
