GDT 4/15/26: Braves vs Marlins - Tax Day Baseball

[thewupk]

Elder tied for 13th in WAR since 8/24/25. Tied with Skubal. Thats an ace.

Clearly Elder is the most valuable pitcher in baseball. Skubal is making like 30+ million and Elder is at 800K

The Texan Acuña?

If he keeps this up till the ASB, I wonder if they extend him

Well we got all these SP coming back from injuries. Maybe we should trade Elder for someone like Mason Miller. They are about equal in service time and the Padres need SP.

Well Bobby also mentored Weiss too when he was a player. Weiss mentioned he was already on the tail end of his career when he was with us and he was constantly picking Bobby's brain.

And his nose as well

That’s an arbitrary end point since it’s a different season so we have to rely on the 5 starts in 2026. So he’s just the 26th best starting pitcher… for now at least

Thats an arbitrary stat. ERA is what matters. Elder is 4th.

Elder to the Pirates for Konor Griffin. WHO SAYS NO?!
