[bravesfanMatt]

Minter must be tired. Only 2 strikes out and a hit. Time to trade him.

You watch or at least keep up with the MBraves a lot. Is Evan Phillips (closer) a prospect?

The whole team is a prospect. I say we call up the entire team in September.

Haha... They are playing well. I know the consensus here is wins and losses don't matter in the minors, but I like the MBraves surging

Demeritte hit 2nd hr

I really like this guy as an under the radar prospect. When's the last time we had a legit power/speed guy in the minors? Heyward?

it's so weird to think about Heyward as a power guy. I know he was, but man.

Seriously though he is a fringe prospect. Late round pick just have a great season this year.

I have this massive hatred of Trea Turner. Dude looks like a butthole.

Also, I'm glad the double-switch worked. He needs to let these guys freaking pitch

He's the reason several people in San Diego deserve to get fired - even if they HADN'T traded with us at all.

It's really the Rays front office people that deserve to be fired for that trade I think. The Pads got good talent in return in Myers in that trade. The Rays straight up got fleeced while the Nats made out like bandits.
