The Atlanta Braves

[zjcvols]

They gonna give Donaldson and/or Dallas a new contract?

I think Dallas is a possibility. I don’t think JD will.

 

[feathersax]

Yanks getting lucky with so many scrubs. It’s going to be a nice and early exit for them in the Playoffs

Yanks going for WC ring #29. Deal with it.

Skyler and Walter Jr are huge pain in the asses.

I don't mind Jr but I've heard that from a few people.

Had to google half of your squad, just like you did.

Tauchman (2.9 WAR) and Urshela (2.4) are the only new "scrubs." All the other guys have played for the Yanks already.

Of which both dudes would be Top 5 on the Braves in WAR so....

For how many of them did they wear batting helmets?

Jeremy Walker called up, going with a Three man bench

Why wouldn't he? He seems to be enjoying himself and he supposedly grew up a Braves fan.

Seems like Atlanta would be as good a place as any if he wants to get to a World Series over the next 3 to 5 years with the talent they should be fielding over that time period.

1) I don’t think Atlanta is going to give a soon to be 34 year old one position play with a history of leg injuries the long term contract he is probably going to seek.

2) Riley is the third baseman of the future and should be ready to hold down that spot next year. He will cost a lot less than JD.

3) They’ll probably focus their money into pitching or find a true corner OF.

Hope Max is ready with the bat

I wouldn’t mind seeing them both come back next year, Donaldson in particular. I don’t think Riley is quite ready to be an offensive cornerstone and Donaldson keeps the lineup balanced.

That's the way I was leaning too. Riley isn't ready and Camargo has disappeared.

Some dude nicknamed “belli” and his slawdog dude friends can’t match my shine

Maybin, whoever the scrub catcher was that hit 2 random ass HR last night, the list goes on and on and we haven’t talked about the pitching yet. How does it feel knowing you have no shot against Houston? Hate that for ya.

A guy with over 1,000 games played in MLB (including for the s****y a** Braves for a year). Higashioka (who a Yankee fan would know who he is) first 3 MLB hits went for HRs last year (played in 2017 too), and is a backup. Still better pitching than the Braves. Took Houston to game 7, not that worried.

they don’t have a shot against Houston any time soon.

Did Houston add anyone at the deadline?

Still not worried. Will make it further than the Braves anyway. I got $100 on that too (still waiting for someone to take me up on the Acuna 40/40).

 

[Florida Stanley]

I still don’t think Riley is the answer at 3rd

 

[YankeeVol]

But none of y'all scrubs will put your money where you mouth is so

you are rustled

Nah. Just give y'all s*** right back

 

[Kingston Vol]

I don't mind Jr but I've heard that from a few people.

It shifts towards the end when you start to hate Walter for the legitimately bad stuff he does, but up til that point I just hated his family for giving him so much ****.

 

[YankeeVol]

I mean imagine having a 3-9 record (or 1-4 during your lifetime) in the WS....couldn't be me
