2025-2026 offseason thread

[CyYoung31]

Am I remembering incorrectly, or was Horsehide Harry a pretty grandiose writer and poster? Like, every post was a thesis he was nailing to the cathedral door?

That was clvclv.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

That was clvclv.

that was also HH.. he would pound a novel for every trade.. I think he got mad at Cheff and rage quit the board.

 

[Hudson2]

Yeah HH wrote novels also. And then got irritated when you told him how insane it was.

 

[Hulavol]

Biggest off-season move we can make … getting the name of the board for next season in place before the season starts and we are 0-7 with our players all hurt and busted for steroids and so on and such …..

85 days until pitchers and catchers report. Today would be a mighty fine day for AA to improve the actual MLB roster.

This point in the offseason absolutely sucks. This year has been slightly slower than normal, but it's frustrating waiting for someone just to do something...

 

[Hudson2]

I'm guessing it's gonna be slow until we get to the WM's.

 

[UNCBlue012]

I saw Passan linked Brandon Woodruff to the Braves as a nice fit. I'd low-key love Woodruff, but the idea of spending the QO on a guy whose velocity dipped last year after returning from injury scares me when we have so many volatile guys in the rotation.

 

[Hudson2]

Passan just said the Braves may be the best fit for Bichette bc they can move him to 2b after Albies deal is up.

I've said this for a while. I get he's a negative defensively, but he's still uber valuable and worth the risk imo.

Wilyer Abreu or Jarren Duran?

Wilyer or Won'tyer?

 

[Hulavol]

Bichette is a no for me dawg.

I’m a moron, and I’m not in charge, I get it. But losing games because of errors is not good for my mental health……

How long until Perdomo is ready to win a ROY?

He has to show he can hit, stay healthy, and get out of rookie ball first?

Hey, he had an OBP of .544 for the Braves' FCL squad. Oh wait, that was his OPS.

 

[Hudson2]

The Braves will move on from Albies probably after this year. I know the fans love him but they loved Freddie, Swanson, and Fried too. Bichette could play SS for this year and then move to 2b next year but I doubt they spend that kind of money

MLB offseason it’s the worst of all sports. Deals take forever to happen.

I thought about this as well. I dont really want to sign Albies to a new deal anyways.

Virtually zero shot they move on unless he has a terrible year. 7 million for a starting caliber 2b is too good of value to pass up.

I just read an MLBTR article and somehow forgot that the Mets gave Brandon Nimmo 8/162, lol.

Please never change Mets
