Vaughn to replace Anderson

 

[AV_12]

Yep . . . He probably needs to be either at 3B or LF.

I just dont see enough pop to justify either at the MLB level

They need a middle infielder honestly. It matches up

True in LF for sure, but you could at least live with him out there with Riley, Acuna, Olson on the other corners.

Yeah and your 2B can drop 30 tanks when he’s healthy and your CF can probably drop 25. There’s enough power on the team you can live with Vaughn and 15 HR’s/year in LF if he’s playing average defense and a .800 OPS

Rosario also has a 2024 team option for $9M that wouldn’t shock me if Atlanta picks that up.

I feel like this is an important note.

As many guys as there are locked up at the MLB level, I think you're right. But . . . the middle infield does become an issue in the next couple of years.

It’s already an issue..and he’s part of the issue ha. Not a solution in the middle so expendable

Why?

I’m going to go out on a limb..

Brand Hand exercises the $7m option
The Braves do not

He’s probably going to be a quality to legit utility player. A valuable piece in the right place.

The Braves utilize a bench the same way the us government utilizes fiscal restraint. Trade him, don’t trade him. Who cares

Vaughn is not even a starting point for Cease.

He is shockingly non athletic. I can’t imagine how bad he’d be at 3rd.

Depending on the market. I feel like we might exercise the option.

They will pick it up. He is the new Markadick.

Whoa whoa

I understand the point you’re trying to make but that’s awfully disrespectful to Markadick

….is this a real opinion you have?

I think he moves like a cement truck. I don’t think he should be in the MLB. But I’m wired differently than y’all!!!

He’s playing SS and 2b but you can’t imagine how bad he would be at 3b?!

 

[TBrown]

Spoiler alert: better than he is at ss and 2b!

he would be worse than devers at 3rd. But yes he is all time bad at ss and I’m assuming 2nd too.
