Albies

[weso1]

Unfortunately, we gave up a year of control to get us from the 7th pick to the 8th pick

But the good news is that the front office who made this highly questionable decision now are much less likely to make another highly questionable decision in trading Albies for a starting pitcher due to the former highly questionable decision. So in the end it may work out for everyone. In other words I'd trade one less year of Albies for no years of Albies. If the front office was wrong in promoting Albies then it could prevent another bad decision.

yep, the braves were actually pretty stupid for promoting freeman so quickly. how many world series rings does he have? none.

a decade of wasted service time.

understanding what a waste of our lives having freeman up with the big club this long is called being intelligent.

Good to know you don't understand the difference between promoting a player in a year where you need his help in making the playoffs and one where you are getting a top 10 draft pick.

Oh he's easily my favorite player... love him. But pissed that this dumb FO:

- Gave up his age 27 season for nothing

- Apparently offered to trade him for Jose Quintana

- Apparently didn't think he was that good anyway (Hart)

lol
