Just wait til 4 PM tomorrow, one way or the other, it'll be bad.

Allard sucks but seems to me he has a little more value than that.

 

[Heyward]

3 ERA, 43 K's, 4 walks, 4 saves, 1.03 WHIP.

Under control through 2021. Doesnt look to be bad, good move AA.

Allard has no value

 

[atl717]

He's controllable, but 33.

 

[Chico]

Martin joins Tomlin as 2 of the 4 qualified relievers with less than a BB/9.

RHRP.

 

[Heyward]

He has 4 years of control per Passan, but he isnt young. Good move it seems.

Hey, i'll take anything at this point lol. Our pen needs it.

 

[Jay212033]

Well I said the moves would be underwhelming smh! Allard was still pretty decent imo

 

[Hudson2]

Good trade here imo. He throws strikes and strikes people out. Allard wasn’t gonna do anything here so I’m fine with it.

 

[Super]

Allard will have to re-invent himself as a pitcher to be anything useful. it’s possible. but it’s a project and the Braves don’t have time for that.

The only people sad about Allard being traded or calling it an overpay are Hart/Coppy apologists.

I mean it's an overpay for a rental but it's not anything the Braves should lose sleep over. Braves have like 10+ guys higher in the pecking order than Allard, it's no biggie.

I hope AA has something bigger up his sleeve Wednesday.

 

[Hudson2]

I wonder if any teams that were wanting Anderson watched his performance tonight and called AA to see if he still wanted to make a deal?
