2025 Around The League Thread

I checked the neighbors garbage today and saw another washed up player that a loser cut.. AA should be happy that I am sending him his way.. maybe there is some value..

Braves need a guy who can be a 3rd catcher and offer some position versatility so Snitker can feel comfortable playing Baldwin in LF.

They have a backup catcher in Gwinnett, McCann

AA is too busy at the corner of Peachtree and Auburn Ave, next to Woodruff Park with a sign saying.. No Offense, please help..
He doesn't have time to do real GM work that actually improves a team.

Would we sell at the deadline? It seems very unlikely. But stranger things have happened.

Murphy and Ozuna might bring back some pretty good prospects.

I just don't think it'll happen. We're just gonna have to eat shit with a spoon the rest of the season and watch the up and down of the team but from the looks of it they're gonna hoover around .500 all year. Big decisions to make in the offseason regarding the team bc this is the 2nd year in a row that the pitching is carrying the team.

Which is crazy because pitching looked like the weak point coming in.

Yep. Luckily Elder has found something again and Holmes has been better than expected. We still need a SP but you're right pitching was supposed to be our weak point.

Looks like 2023 was not a juiced ball year relative to the surrounding years, despite what some people believe.

I hate how MLB can manipulate the game by changing the balls. Curious that in most of these years there is a definite V curve going on. My tinfoil hat goes on when I see stuff like this.

I mean wouldn't that be normal? Don't balls fly better in the summer when it's mostly hot, dry air, hence less drag?

I'm certainly not a scientist here. Just a 10 cent observation.
