Assuming he doesn’t decide to retire, do we bring him back for $20M next year?

There’s a good article here I like how we did our homework on the swing prior to the trade https://www.detroitnews.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2022/08/20/braves-fixed-robbie-grossman-matter-days-tigers-couldnt-all-season/7855603001/

This article says he could be https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/pirates/2019/08/22/Pirates-release-Francisco-Cervelli-who-is-headed-to-Braves/stories/201908220385 Jason Mackey @JMackeyPG I'm told Cervelli has some sort of deal with the Atlanta Braves. Not sure if it's major league or minor...

AA has stated that he believes in the draft and I think most GMs want "their guys". It's why I originally thought we'd be out on Grandal, but after seeing our options we may have to lose that pick as opposed to paying the king's ransom for Realmuto. If we do lose our 3rd pick, getting another...

I think Allard will be sent back down and Luke Jackson kept. I'd rather DFA Jackson and rotate Fried and Allard in between mop up duties and spot starts.

Today is the Arbitration Filing Deadline which of course everyone who is left will do. Then in 3 days we have the exchange deadline which many teams who use the file and trial approach use as the hard deadline. Maybe I haven't paid enough attention in the past, but I can't recall such a small...

So far AA has gone with what he knows. He's picked up a couple of pitches from the Dodgers and a trainer and assistant Gm from the Jays (although he did not last). Looking at the Jays and Dodgers there are two pitchers who could make sense if he follows his familiarity streak. AA was hired by...

The Braves have claimed right-hander Chase Whitley off waivers from the Rays, reports Mark Feinsand of MLB.com (on Twitter). Whitley was arbitration-eligible for the first time this offseason and was projected by MLBTR contributor Matt Swartz to earn $1MM. He's out of options.

450 K minor league and 1.1 major league He has an option left so i like the move

A quick google search shows he was a 5th round pick in 2011. He was an athletic CF who was always a good OBP guy, but developed a little power in 2015 and somewhat broke out. Last year he showed up to camp looking like a Defensive end asssumingly to increase the power, but got injured. He...

We have no idea what AA is going to do, but it's fun to speculate. From some of the things he has said, others have said about him, and moves he has made we can speculate on his tendacies and try to get a gauge on what he plans on doing. We don't know what his duties were in L.A., so we can...

We have a sizable debt, but if revenue is up you're moving in the right direction. http://www.myajc.com/sports/liberty-media-reveals-braves-financial-results-revenue-quarter/ROkVBjSN32pqzKoYs6faZP/

I'm not sure the odds or why Bowman would leak it, but I can see this making sense. Former Brave, former manager, and well liked.

I've seen a lot of posts about staying put this offseason. Flowers has solidifed catcher at least for one more year if not extended, so a backup shouldn't cost much at all. Camargo and Ruiz have given enough of a reason to try and see what we have in them for 3B and if Riley could be ready...

Projecting the MS and Florida rotations next year could lead us one of two ways. We'll assume Fried, Gohara, Allard, and Soroka are above AA status. You'd start the AA rotation with Touki which makes sense, since he just got promoted. After that it's a guessing game. I'd guess Wright would...

Ok, so there’s a lot of talk about where we are, so I’d like to here some opinions on where we are going. Adding Acuna and Albies to Dansby, Freeman, Ender, and Flowers gives our offense a good core. I think we’ll trade Nick and go after a 3B, but the focus needs to be on pitching. In the...
