    Then why post here? This is an Anti-Dodgers forum.

    Braves fire Seitzer and assistant hitting coach. Also Fasano.

    Moreover: If you read his exit interview, Seitzer basically fired himself. He admits he lost his way reaching the guys emotionally/psychologically. It sounds like Anthopoulos planned to keep the coaching staff together, and then Seitzer shot himself in the dick during the season’s post-mortem.

    GDT 8/4: MAX ….database error special

    They changed the rules on backdating IL stints, and the organization has seemingly been slow to adapt / gun-shy to commit to full IL stints.

    This website is a ****ing joke

    Can we change the name of the forum to “Atalanta Brase: 2024: 204: Databrabes Error”?

    GDT 7/20/24: Braves vs Cardinals - Break's over for real now

    Yep—terrible attempt on an easy play out there by Duvall. Can’t believe they didn’t rule that an error.

    2024 MLB Draft

    See, that's the point: barren is an overstatement, not an understatement, when it comes to the value they've been getting out of their drafts. Perfect? No—not even top-ten. But not empty of value, as sky-is-falling posts like these presume.

    2024 MLB Draft

    I think we're mostly on the same page there, though I'm giving them a little more benefit of the doubt, between the sanctions and the quick promotions. My biggest qualm (as I lampshaded), with which I think you agree, is the seeming difficulty in developing the hit-tool of their position player...

    2024 MLB Draft

    That regime has produced two bonafida stars (Strider, Harris), some up-and-coming players who look like they can be solid-to-better regulars (Smith-Shawver, Schwellenbach, Waldrep, Elder still with the Braves; Langaliers, Grissom, Malloy on other teams now), and a wave of pitching (Murphy...

    2024 MLB Draft

    Lots of gimmicks being mocked to the Braves, between ambidexterity and breaking the fourth-wall. Either way, based on recent history, we shouldn’t expect anything but someone with a gun in the first act.

    Grading Waldrep's Stuff

    A successful MOR is definitively not disappointing for a late first-round pick. And it's only slightly disappointing for a very early first-round pick, like Ian Anderson. The big questions are: Can Anderson consistently return to that form? Can Waldrep consistently develop that form? I'm much...

    6/16 GDT: rays game 3

    I think picking up one of these names (or someone similar) and sticking with a six-man rotation (either Schwellenbach or Elder, of the current options; and then probably Smith-Shawver when he comes back from the IL) is the way to go. And I agree, of those names, Eflin is the most obvious...
