9/29 GDT

I think he can be around .750 and reach the WAR range I predicted. I expect him to really clean up the sloppy defense

i thought we had a bet on over under .775 next year

We probably do... I'll bet in a heartbeat haha

I think the reason for the braves fast promotions, at least for Gohara, was clearly because the player showed they were ready.

no probably about it...we do...but we put off deciding the stakes until the off-season

I think it's bc we really, really wanna compete next season

 

[Enscheff]

And you said he'd struggle to get 1.0. How about 1.7 bWAR?

I project him at 1-2 WAR. You say 2-3. Seems to me it should be 2.0.

.775 it is then. I ain't skered

Hart and JS want another ring before they die

Gohara is really nasty.

I just hope Coppy holds onto Albies and others, and doesnt do anything stupid.

I'll take that bet if it's bWAR and 2.0 or higher

This.

I've felt like Albies will be traded for awhile now...

If we trade Albies for a pitcher it's going to be the Miller trade in reverse. Just as Ender was better than Miller by himself Albies is likely going to be better than any pitcher we try to get.

Yep. I'll be sick, like really sick if we trade Albies

Yeah I'll take the under on .775 for Swanson too haha.

This.

Only reason i'm not sure that would happen is we dont really have anyone to replace Albies.

And our rotation seems kinda set with Julio, Gohara, Newk, Dickey, and someone else next year. With others on the way up.

 

[Enscheff]

I'll take that bet if it's bWAR and 2.0 or higher

Done.

Lol you realize his bWAR is lower then his fWAR right?

Oh well, sucks for you.

I'd rather get in on the .775 bet though.

 

[sturg33]

Albies has already produced more fWAR than Phillips has this season... and Phillips has had a pretty good year

Yeah, I get carried away from time-to-time hah

 

[Enscheff]

Nicolino and Mike Montgomery are both examples of the role I see Fried filling for the Braves starting next year.

Demerritte makes him expendable though.
