2018 Trade Deadline ROSTERBATION

[jpx7]

Braves better have won the Harper waiver claim, or this is all very disappointing. Murphy would’ve been nice.

 

[Mad Dog Murph]

It will be a little disappointing to see a AAA guy called up to replace Wilson today.

You mean like Michael Reed lol

Attendance is now basically dead even to last season. Briefly dropped under last year's pace after the Marlins series. Now just slightly ahead.

Didn't say who claimed him but the waiver expired and Harper is staying with the Nats per Heyman.

edit: Apparently the Dodgers had claimed him

 

[Hulavol]

Wow on Reed. Just wow. At least that is better than the brother in law....

Pretty underwhelming as the other contenders add real MLB bats.

 

[Mad Dog Murph]

I would have actually preferred Adams over Murphy..... And my blind grandma over Reed or BiL

 

[steveAKAslick]

Welp, that was definitely anticlimactic

It still has to be higher than what they projected coming into the season.

Hopefully the 2019 projections support a $120M+ payroll, but maybe not.

Braves probably did too. Didn't get a chance with Adams however.

 

[Carp]

Adams would have been a revelation off the bench against righties.

 

[gcbraves]

Reed is already on the 40-man roaster, so there is still that open spot...

hearing American Acuna cleared waivers

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Wait. We are supposed to schedule time to get fatter. ****. I am doing it all wrong again.

 

[Mad Dog Murph]

No schedule needed, i just have a constant IV of KFC gravy pumped into my veins.

 

[Braves1976]

Murphy to the Cubs

Disappointing that we passed on getting him so cheap, my guess is it was the almost 4 million he is still owed.

You have to be some pretty cheap MFers to balk on 4 million in a contending season.

Yea, it seems we do unlike the Cubs. Murphy would have given our line-up a big boost IMO. He'd like hitting in our ballpark a lot too. My guess is we claimed Adams instead but Cardinals got him due to record.

 

[NinersSBChamps]

There are several LHHs out there who would fit nicely on the Braves bench.

AA needs to get one. It doesn't really matter where he plays at this point.

I expect to read about a LHH acquired via trade replacing Wilson on the roster by this afternoon.

Right again!

They simply can't afford it (though I think it's closer to $3M).

Now I'm worried about the Braves having that $120M+ payroll we all want to see in 2019.
