The Atlanta Braves

[TBrown]

About to settle in wearing my ben zobrist Rays shirsey and my TB

If Folty is non tendered, it would really only be Duvall and Swanson. I estimated $5M each. They both made around $3M last year

Crazy Duvall is still in arb years

That’s what happens when you’re non the roster full time till your 27

Manfred can go to hell... Wants to keep expanded playoffs (not sure how I feel about all the time. Granted this year was fun)

But also wants to keep starting extras with a runner on second. That's so stupid to me

Not sure that it matter much if the nix it in the playoffs again. Expanded was always staying once it got passed

Gonna do 14 teams for sure. Three division winners gets bye. Wish we had 32 teams right now. We could do 12 teams and give two division winners byes. Make it more exclusive.

Just get the DH in for 2021 so we can bring Bear back. Everything else can wait till the CBA expires.

Riley/Waters/Davidson for Lindor too much? Attach Ender to soften the blow the finances. That would almost match what the Sox got for Betts.

Would do it ASAP but not sure its worth it unless you sign Lindor long term. Which i doubt the Braves would

Did some math, some guesses on who would be on the roster, some arbitration estimates and based off 26 man roster the Braves (if payroll stays the same amount) should have about $55M to play with.

I have a hard time believing we’ll spend that. They’ll use the loss of revenue as an excuse.

The more I think about it I'm perfectly ok with the expanded playoffs. This season was exciting.. I'm just completely against the gimmick of a runner on 2nd

As long as its regular season only, I don't hate it. But it absolutely does not belong in the playoffs.

Need to save the runner until the 11th or 12th inning.

3 batters, 3 3 ball counts

 

[C/O]

I was against all of the changes at first. ....But not going to lie, this season was the most fun I have had in a long time. Keep it all.

 

[AV_12]

We were the only chance. Rays offense sucks

So did ours for the last of the series. Still can’t believe we dropped 3 straight.

 

[AV_12]

No chance

 

[Florida Stanley]

I ain’t watchin a pitch of that bitch

I ain’t watchin a pitch of that bitch

I said I wasn’t either. Lol

What our starters did outside of Wright was impressive

 

[SGMVols]

Of course NOW Bellinger can’t make a great catch.

Bryse Wilson giving up two base runners in six innings is something I still can’t comprehend.

 

[SGMVols]

Another dumb luck double play. The baseball gods love them some Dudger blue.
