I'm confident in the dealings of Alex Anthopoulos. He's brought in some great pieces to the Braves' puzzle.

Did the Braves reach an agreement with ballys sports plus or something or is the guy that wrote this wrong?

I’m not sure what you mean but I believe all the teams that have agreements with Bally Sports now are on Bally Sports Plus. They started a trial run with some NBA/NHL teams but I think everything rolled out in November

Last I've heard the Braves haven't agreed to their games being streamed on the stand alone ballys sports plus

1) I am pretty sure the Braves haven’t made any sort of announcement regarding Bally through them period. 2) I’m not sure if the Braves can have any say regarding how the games are streamed since Bally owns the rights anyways.

I called ballys and asked about the Braves on sports plus. The lady said they do not have the rights for the Braves games for sports plus and are negotiating with them

Murphy signed. 6/$73M with a team option for a 7th year

Jesus Christ that is cheap AF lol

Wow lol that’s crazy.

 

[Wickman]

I don’t understand how he does this

What kind of money are we throwing under the table to get these dudes to sign these deals

I sort of get this for Murphy. He’s a 28 year old catcher 3 years from FA. He’ll be 31 when he enters FA but after the market I just saw I wouldn’t take any sort of extension under $100M

 

[zjcvols]

JT Realmuto at 30 years old: 5 years/$115M

Sean Murphy at 28 years old with a 25% increase in the market: 7 years/$88M

Insane

Willson Contreras isn’t even a catcher and got the same amount of money for two less years
