Who is this guy? Not familiar.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

18.6 per? Seems step doesn’t it. Not sure I am buying this yet

 

[Hudson2]

No way we would pay that much for him.

 

[Hudson2]

I’d do 3/36 though.

 

[Oklahomabrave]

Gabe Burns is refuting it. Think I jumped the gun

I’m really surprised nobody has signed Marwin yet.

Thread title said report. You didn’t make any claims. You did give me a heart attack though. I was trying to rationalize paying him 18 per.

I wouldnt be surprised if we do sign him, but we better not touch that number. Dude seems like a Braves player lol he and JTR would be a legit get though

 

[Enscheff]

I could get on board with a Marwin signing, but not for $56m

That was quick. I might wind up liking this Gabe fella.

Eduardo Escobar went for 3/27, which was one of the better signings this offseason. Gonzalez should go for something similar, maybe a little more.

Is there a scenario where AA could swap Camargo plus for Kluber and then sign Gonzalez? Not sure we have the available cash for that?

I have reason to believe that he's Too Skinny

I would rather have markakis back.

i would like marwin and think he would fit well. if he can be had for ~$10MM, i'd jump on it.

I would even do 2/24 with a team option on a 3rd at a higher aav

Am I missing something? Why would the Braves go after Gonzalez when they basically have a younger cheaper version of him in Camargo?

 

[Freshmaker]

I think there's some merit to it because it would give us a ton of flexibility. If you have two guys that can play multiple positions it gives you all sorts of lineup and pinch hitting options
