Braves trading for Stroman?

[IslandBrave]

Bowman said Waters and Anderson in the discussion. Surely not.

That was a fake account

One small fact to add to the mix. Remember that Bum can't be traded to the Braves without his permission. That is spelled permi$$ion. Braves don't need to be backed into a corner.
Also Stroman (and Giles) are under control until 2021.

Thanks.

The big thing about Stroman is his length in games. He can give you the full 9 often.

Looks like the guy made it up. It’s nice to daydream

According to Spotrac Stroman is just controlled through 2020.

Yeah. Bumgardner put most of the perceived contenders on his no trade list which pretty much guarantees he controls where he gets traded to.

Well their OF play this year has been...not good

yeah but what value does he have to them really? they aren’t good and won’t be with or without him. assume they’d want young players.

This guy did break the Machado signing and the Kawhi signing. I think he's broke couple other things as well. He has at least some credibility.

I've always said this about rebuilding teams, but they still take on MLB value all the time anyway. I don't get it, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Would wait for a more reliable source, but would be a nice pickup.

Do wonder what else would be involved.

Yeah and he's gonna want to leverage that into an extension. I want zero part of that.

Its actually funny because I've seen a ton a fans on reddit and twitter saying that they will actually pay MORE for Bumgarner as long as we give him an extension. So silly.

Yeah I mean he said he did, but did he actually? haha

who knows

 

[BeanieAntics]

Yeah I mean he said he did, but did he actually? haha

I mean, he has a fairly substantial following and he's had several accounts vouch for him on his behalf. That doesn't automatically mean that he's credible, but I think it gives him more credence than simply having a blue check mark or something.

Usual suspects arguing against a Stroman SMH

I think we just said the same thing.

 

[TheBravos]

I’ve always thought if we acquire a starting pitcher...it will be Stroman.
