I am not sure Randy, but I really like the idea of trading on the come. We, fans, would have given much more for the rookie who came out like fire than the 3rd year player who has turned out to be average. So maybe a player like Grissom, who really only has value to the Braves in case of...

They play the Mets and hopefully win at least one against them.

We need to take care of business before, during, and after the series with the Mets. If we lose that series, then we do not really deserve to win the division, however, if we take care of the Gnats and Phillies, we may build some buffer just in case. The Gnats, Marlins, and A's (three bad...

The Brewers have been playing good ball lately. If they can take 2 from the Mets and then we can take 3+ from the Phillies, there is a good chance the Brewers can overtake Philly. That in and of itself would make me smile.

Hopefully the Brewers play well the next 3 games. Taking 2/3 from NY would be glorious.

Sure starting slow to bad teams is a yoke...however, they still have the best record in the league against <500 teams. It is the good ones that they have less success. You cant be the best when you consistently lose the series against the best. (1-2 against LA twice, 1-4 against NYM, 1-2...

I think you give Soroka 2 more starts in AAA and bring him up to start the first game against the Nationals. Ease his way in with a game against a lesser offense.

Just dreaming...can you imagine a Starting Rotation of Degrom Strider Fried Wright Soroka That may have to be the best rotation ever constructed in Atlanta.

I am more excited about Grissom as a prospect than I was for Albies or Riley when they hit AA at a similar young age. I really hope he is not traded.

Finished night 4 for 5

It feels to me that AA uses high-level prospects for high-level return and not for rental guys to fill a gap. So I assume prospects like Shewmake and Vines are less likely to be dealt unless we are getting back something with longerterm commitment.

I guess I disagree with everyone on this thread. I do not think there is any way Dansby will willingly take the QO and try to prove it was not a fluke. He has an opportunity right now to make the biggest contract of his life and he WANTS it. He will not give the braves a "hometown discount"...

How ****ty would Dansby feel if he lost his job in Atlanta because he was too good in a contract year combined with an unexpected your guy showing up?

Obviously 11 games is too SSS, however, his season is shaping up to be un real. If in a month, Albies is still not back and he is still destroying AA ball, it may be the play. It was after 43 games that AA felt he had to bring up Harris, and that seems to be working.

Do you think he gets promoted before Waters gets a shot?

I don't think Snit "doesn't like" Acuna, I think he really just doesn't understand him. Great young players have a fire that comes out in flare & pumping themselves up with dramatics. Snit is old school and he thinks "nose to the grindstone" and "look like you have been here before" are better...

It is interesting that we were good to start and lately, every SP has struggled.

Was Beachy a porn star? 'Cause that is what Strider looks like standing on the mound.

I have noticed that and it is interesting that nobody is talking about it. Maybe because they are serious about evaluating instead of simply pumping up his value. I think they believe he is close to ready. Look for him to be assigned to AA and they are planning for him to be the next callup...

In 2020, Ozuna came to camp a little fat and struggled. His wife told him that he needed to get in shape and during the gap, he did get in shape and look how amazing he was during the season. In 2021, Ozuna came to camp a little our of shape and started off struggling, then got hurt, etc...
