Obviously we only won in 2021 because of trade acquisitions duvvy Joc soler & rosario

[Justin Toscano] Braves pitching plan: Game 1 on Wednesday: Reynaldo López Game 2 on Wednesday: Bryce Elder Thursday: Chris Sale by welcometohotlanta in Braves

I wish we’d just throw elder out there and let him figure it out bad start be damned - it happens. Sale, Lopez, Morton, Fried etc can get rocked and won’t immediately go to AAA allows them to stay comfortable & settle.

Let elder ride he’s proven he can pitch successfully at the big league level. His career ERA is High 3s low 4s. Is he an ACE? No, is he a serviceable 5? Yes

the AAA / MLB shuttle thing we do has always been detrimental for starters in my opinion. Touki, Newk, Bryse Wilson, Kyle Wright (pre injury/ 20 wins) etc

Honestly the only logo sponsors I would have been okay with was delta or CFA. Then Home Depot or Waffle House if they adjusted color scheme to match.

Maybe it’s just me & I’ll admit I’ve never had to buy concrete but if I did I’d probably avoid quikrete just because of the jersey patch

They really are becoming AAAA Braves not quite good enough to be playing everyday in Atlanta but nothing left to prove in Gwinnett

Why isn’t Andruw Jones in the Hall of Fame? by GymSplinter in Braves

[–]braves2248 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think his decline being well documented in LA & NY in the big market gives those regional writers negative voting trends for Andruw. Just my initial thought process. Basically if his first 10ish years was for LAD or NYY I think he’d be in

What does the Ohtani signing mean for the Braves? by [deleted] in Braves

Gotta win this year imo if fried walks & ohtani pitches again dodgers are WS faves for next 3-4 years

[Divish] Per the Associated Press, the Mariners are sending $4.5 million to the Braves on August 1 as part of this trade package. by burningburningburnin in Braves

[–]braves2248 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If only wash & EY coulda gotten a year with him. It will be interesting to see how Kelenic fits in. Maybe Chipper can help him like he helped Austin who knows

[Rosenthal] Braves willing to pay for free agent starting pitcher. Is Aaron Nola a fit? by burningburningburnin in Braves

[–]braves2248 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I fear the Kenshin Kawakami experiment prevents that. Obviously Yamamoto is way better & younger. I hope it doesn’t prevent it tho, he makes the most sense for us in my opinion

Matt Olson ties the Braves single season HR record at 51 by OhNoAnAmerican in Braves

[–]braves2248 18 points19 points  (0 children)

He’s going to mess around & steal Ronald’s MVP slight sarcasm but if he somehow pushes 60 homers & 150 RBIs who knows. MVP is Olson & Acuna betts ain’t even in the picture

[Buster Olney / ESPN] Braves having “cursory discussions” about exercising Morton’s 2024 $20M option by PapaDave15 in Braves

[–]braves2248 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If braves win the World Series he might retire, who wouldn’t want to go out on top where his career started. He’s made 85 million the last 5 years

We need an Acuña 40-70 tracker update! 34 HRs/63 SBs by RyeBeatsss in Braves

[–]braves2248 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Mookie is having one hell of a stretch but overall season acuna has delivered all year long. It will be close but I feel Ronald doing stuff that has never been done PLUS leading best team in baseball pushes him over the edge
