    Minor League Thread Part Deux

    Once again, the Braves’ farm system is ranked in the bottom-10, yet they keep churning out talent. I get that our depth—especially positional depth—still isn’t where it should be, but the folks doing these rankings are dense as hell. I truly believe Caminiti, Ritchie, and O. Murphy all project...

    GDT 8-25: Striding in Miami

    We need Profar to do this shit next year, because he looks fantastic. And same for Ozzie... total 180 for him and Harris.

    GDT 8/26: Hurston vs. Sandy, No Drake, 6:40 start

    Man, I’m so impressed with Tyler Kinley. Such a great pickup for the Braves. I’m getting serious Pierce Johnson vibes here — Rockies arm comes over, goes on an insane run. The surface numbers look good, but it’s the peripherals that really jump off the page...

    GDT 8/26: Hurston vs. Sandy, No Drake, 6:40 start

    Extremely impressed. Obviously, the strike-out stuff has to be better, but he made really big pitches when he needed to. You can't ask for much more from a rook.

    GDT 8/26: Hurston vs. Sandy, No Drake, 6:40 start

    Dude is hanging the hell out of his pitches right now

    GDT 8-25: Striding in Miami

    Strider is so fascinating. He doubled the usage of his changeup and curveball yesterday, reduced his fastball usage to around 40% and sprinkled in the slider. For a guy known to throw his fastball so much, it's pretty amazing to see him adjust on the go and have success. It doesn't mean very...

    GDT 8/20/25 - Braves vs White Sox - Getting More Waldrep Data

    No, not at all. I like Waldrep, but Schwelly has multiple above-average pitches with top-tier velocity and movement. He's a legitimate ace.

    GDT 8/20/25 - Braves vs White Sox - Getting More Waldrep Data

    Waldrep, easily. He's totally reinvented himself over the last year. Harris has always been incredibly talented, so while his turnaround is shocking, it's not unprecedented haha

    GDT 8/20/25 - Braves vs White Sox - Getting More Waldrep Data

    The White Sox have been the fourth best offense in baseball over the last two months. But overall, agreed.

    GDT 8-19: White Sox-Braves Game 2

    I did not expect the offense to suddenly be awesome again

    GDT 8-19: White Sox-Braves Game 2

    Baldwin has been brutal out of nowhere. Also, Elder has got to actually make an attempt to be better

    GDT 8-19: White Sox-Braves Game 2

    Elder is hilarious. "I wonder if I can get away with throwing most of my pitches down the middle! It's not like I should try to get them down in the zone."

    GDT 8-18: White Sox at Braves

    Hey buddy, you've got to make an honest attempt at pitching well. You can't get pissed and just throw the ball. I love that he wears his heart on his sleeve, but this is because he's frustrated

    GDT 8-17: Hot in Cleveland; Going for a Sweep

    At this rate, I just hope they have a good amount to spend in the off-season. Anything under $60 million is going to be an absolute disaster and embarrassment after going under the threshold this past season.

    GDT 8-17: Hot in Cleveland; Going for a Sweep

    People are really undervaluing quality catchers with superior defense and a decent to good bat. The Braves would have zero issues trading him, contract and all, for a nice return.

    GDT 8-17: Hot in Cleveland; Going for a Sweep

    A 1-35 slump is brutal, but his bat — which is very good for a catcher — was never where his main value lies. He’s a defense-first guy who CAN hit and is consistently praised for how well he works with pitchers. The pitching peripherals when he’s behind the plate have reflected that since he...

    GDT 8-17: Hot in Cleveland; Going for a Sweep

    The Braves would have zero problems getting a great return for Murphy. Zero.
