The Atlanta Braves




Hope this deal is deader than dead

Mookie is literally their best player since Ted ****ing Williams and for some reason they’re convinced they can’t pay him.

He told them flatly he’s going to FA

I still think I’d take my chances. The Yanks aren’t going to pay him $300M+ and the Dodgers have never shown they will do that. At that point who could afford him? I’d take my chances and keep him and maybe you can get him at $325M I’m February.

If you can sign him, why not trade him for pieces and then sign him? They aren’t winning title in 2020. They aren’t giving themselves a head start to resign him by him playing their in 2020. They have 0 reason to keep him for this season.

I mean when have we seen that though would be my point. I agree they’re probably not gonna compete this year but I mean they could get a wild card spot if things break right.

Maybe listening to the Boston Ringer guys have clouded my brain. I just know I’d be pissed trading Mookie less than two years after winning the WS.
 
Angels get: David Price (and Red Sox take $45M of Price’s contract)

Braves get: Mookie Betts

Red Sox get: Luis Rengifo, Kyle Wright, and Shea Langeliers
