The points about the bullpen are good. But We shouldn’t complain about positional players aging badly. You either pay for bad aging years, or stay out of the FA or near FA game altogether. And I don’t think you compete without sprinkling in some well timed FAs. Totally agree that throwing good money at bullpen arms is fireable.

Paying more money for your bullpen than your starting pitching, you better have a top 3 bullpen. They don't. That's absolutely unforgiveable.

Way more disappointed in Riley than Riley’s contract, sure but everything about Sean Murphy has been moronic. The trade, the extension, the playing time, all of it.

All while Marcell is playing at like 50% and has a 52 wRC+ since June 1st. I just do not understand anything this organization has done this year.

Forty-two POINT five million United States of America dollars for an absolute **** tank bullpen

Bro Frank would’ve pulled up in a fresh to death sweater vest, spent 1.4 million, and rolled out some dudes you’ve never heard of that all turned into prime Mariano as soon as they put on a Braves uniform.

Imagine how AA would be thought of (not just in ATL, but nationally) if 2021 never happened. Say he makes those deadline deals and the team just kind of kept playing like they had been. Is he already fired in that case?

He wouldn't survive this season, that's for sure. And Snit would've fired by any new GM after that AZ shitshow.

5 Supers in a row, with 3 CWS appearances and one title is just absurd. Is there any other active coach in the sport with a streak like that?

Mike was my fourth round pick in my eight-team fantasy league. Yes, I am stupid, even for a cat.

I dropped Mike on May 25. No one has added him.

I have him for $37 in my auction league. I also have Willy Contreras for $31 so that should tell you how my team is doing. Can’t drop them either or they’d get snapped up for $1 each.
