GDT: Mets @ Braves 03/23: Return of the Venezuelan Trout

Side note, in that Braves show they released the other day, Harris was talking with EY about goals for the season. Harris told EY his goal was a 30/30 season. EY said that's too easy for him, he should aim higher.

If he put up a 30/30 season, I think all of us would be stoked.

Trying to temper expectations a bit for post Rookie year, but its honestly hard to not see the kids super talented in a lot of facets.
 
The Braves have shown all spring they are going to be running... like most teams. So Harris getting 30 steals shouldn't be a problem. 30 homers.. I can see.. and yes would be very happy with that.

Agreed. but in once he came up last season, he put up 19 home runs and 20 stolen bases. You have to imagine his stolen bases will go up this year. If he adds just a little more power, he can get there.

Imagine having Acuna and Harris put up 30/30 season. 35-40 home runs from Olson, 30-35 home runs from Riley, 20-25 home runs from Ozuna, 15-20 home runs and 20-25 stolen bases for Albies....

That is a scary looking offense no matter how you slice it. Then if you get a little production out of Arcia/Rosario.....

That is why I would like the best glove at SS regardless of the bat. You didn't even list Murphy/TDA 25+ homers 25+ doubles.
 
...can we talk about why Ozuna is hitting fourth?!

Just a guess, but I'm thinking he's a placeholder in the lineup for Murphy.

Swap Murphy for Ozuna in the lineup, and switch Murphy and Td'A defensively, and I think you have the opening day lineup.

I think he could balance the R/L a bit better with moving Harris and Rasorryio up a bit. Possibly Ozzie hitting 9th to start the season as well.
 
Still doing this whole Acuna leadoff thing is insane now that Harris has ascended.

Harris is a threat to score from first on light doubles.
