The O's now have 4 picks before the 2nd round wow. That's how you reload the farm.
I’ll be shocked if Mr. “We’re not selling” starts to sell before this weekend. He still has false hope that the Braves can win hitting 5 homers every night like last night.
In all seriousness, if he were to sell, I’d be shocked if it happened before July 28.
Who is thatCertainly not a person I agree with much, but I do on this....
Just a braves' homer on X. He's certainly not plugged in, so take it with a grain of salt. He has a decent following of brave fansWho is that
… and probably includes the caveat that any deal that gets mentioned in the media is automatically off…I'd be surprised if AA hasn't already had conversations with other GM's about what players he'll have available.
I'm still not convinced AA will actually sell.… and probably includes the caveat that any deal that gets mentioned in the media is automatically off…
If Murphy is traded will people forget this clown exists?Certainly not a person I agree with much, but I do on this....
If we had an unlimited payroll and a good farm system then Murphy would stay put no doubt but we don't so he can help set us up going forward at SS. I've heard the Rays and Padres linked more than anybody else. I don't see the Padres trading the #3 prospect in baseball but he won't be ready until 27-28 anyways. The Rays have Carson Williams who I'd love to get and he's in AAA and will be ready soon and that's just what we need.If Murphy is traded will people forget this clown exists?
I don’t know anything about this guy, or any other potential targets, but this is the type of player Murphy should be traded for…and nothing else.If we had an unlimited payroll and a good farm system then Murphy would stay put no doubt but we don't so he can help set us up going forward at SS.

Carson Williams in AAA Durham
Hit: 45 | Power: 60 | Run: 55 | Arm: 70 | Field: 70 | Overall: 55
He's got a lot of power and is great defensively with a cannon of an arm. Hes really good over there at SS and will be ready to step in right out of ST. The Rays could use pitching so if Holmes could be used to get him to I'd be all over it. The Rays have the 42 pick in the comp A round so Murphy and Holmes for Williams and the 42nd pick would work.I don’t know anything about this guy, or any other potential targets, but this is the type of player Murphy should be traded for…and nothing else.
I knew they were tinkering with his swing. Didn't check the k rateCan anyone point me to a successful major league hitter who had strikeout rates similar to Carson's in the minors? Not trying to be snarky, I just genuinely can't think of anyone.
