Braves sign Kenley Jansen

[The Tariff King]

Wow. 1 year 16 mill.

 

[DirkPiggler]

Just like we all predicted.

 

[Hudson2]

Dude. Payroll is a lot higher than any of us expected. Our bullpen could be the best it’s ever been.

I've been calling out DOB since Olson extent.

He said his source told him we had 15 million left.

We now have -14 million left to play with.

 

[Tapate50]

Damn. He’s worth that?

All the projections on fangraphs project a big step back this year

I wonder if Braves couldn't find a starter they really wanted, so plan is to bullpen game the **** out of everyone.

We have a great roster for piggybacking starters. Let those young kids pitch.

It took the braves almost a season too long to finally give the keys to Fried.

 

[The Tariff King]

Braves doing this to please the Curaçao contingent.

Ozzie will be happy.

 

[The Tariff King]

It feels weird being a fan of a team spending all this money

 

[Acuña’s Bat Flip]

Welcome to Heaven, Kenley!

He was throwing low 90’s last year, so that’s probably why. But his statcast rates are still elite.

Jansen
Smith
Matzek
Minter
McHugh
Jackson
Yates

That will be crazy. Also tells you a lot about plans with Touki Newk etc

Newk's last chance.

 

[msstate7]

Newk's last chance.

I hope he gets a shot early. Even us biggest newcomb guys have to be ready to pull the plug if he struggles again though

 

[nsacpi]

Guessing Kenley will close. Best closer setup since Kimbrel. Love the funky rocking motion.

You sure snit gonna take will out the closer role? Hopefully AA has led snit to matchups dictate closer
