@kg01 ; My guy is bigger than your guy.
Younger.
Hit more homers in one month, than Ender for his career.
Chicks dig the long ball_!

Whoa, spoiler alert, BuzzB is a chick?!

That explains so much, ma'am.

Kidding, but what kind of package could be had for that vaunted bryse/Riley combo?

Between SliderFellow(my head hurts thinking of him warming up), Flow.(I’d like to send him down stream)and Ender the slender with his maladies....I’d ship them out to lose their salaries.

Bryse/Riley equals a Starlin Marte, for me. No less than.

Getting back to the Dodgers deal w/ Alex Wood; There is also a window of 6 m. he can make in incentives. Deal could be as high as 10 m. this year.

I saw that Martin Prado is available. we could plug him at 3rd for a big discount (sic) ... actually, I was a big Martin Prado fan and thought the Braves should have never traded him.
This JD drama is past getting old !! ... Loyalty = $$$$

I’m glad you posted the article. Had not read it, before now. A friend called me this morning asking me if I knew the Braves were out? I said, no. He told me it’s going to be about the money and Alex won’t go any higher. The take it or leave it, upset the other side. I tend to believe The IB Times on this, but what do I know? I can easily see him signing with LA and their offer(which apparently is not final)or the Nationals with their deferred amount tied in to the offer. Don’t count the Dodgers out....$$$$

@kg01 , I’m seesawing back to the Nats. in my original prediction. It was nice pal-ing up with you on the JD train, riding in the caboose car. Good while we lasted.

I hope the Braves to resign JD because they may still have a winning record but they wont be in the NL Playoffs in 2020

With the 26 man roster, I’d like to have Kakes, Duvall, being reserves. I’d love to have Haniger or Marte in LF(too late on Ozuna, unless we come in with an offer like the one made to JD-& I don’t think we will), Pache in CF, Acuna in RF.

Would like to see Riley and Camargo platoon, unless Swanson or Albies needs a day off. Camargo slides over in that case. Hopefully Culberson can make it back from that terrible injury. It can play with your mind at the plate. I took my share of being hit at the plate w/ a fractured cheekbone, jaw surgery, and a change up got edge of my left eye socket. That bruise took forever to heal. Makes you a head case, pun intended.

Babe Ruth, H.S., College. Three different “headhunts.” One time I deserved it. After hitting a game winner, I danced around the bases like @kg01 was waiting for me at the plate. Next time I faced him, he drilled me on the jawbone with a heater. Ump threw him out, I declined the stretcher. Did go to the E.R.
Little Leagues(KLand, Corey, NE Athletic)they would throw behind me, because lack of control, not being vicious. I got hit all over my body. When you consistently lead the league in hitting, you get beaned instead of walked.

I feel for Charlie. I see those pitches coming at me in my dreams at night. Can’t tell you how many I dodged. If you play for 20 years, you are going to get drilled. Always remembered what Coach Cook told me(former NY Yankee farm pitcher), “grind your feet in the box, and be a man.” Yes, while your front leg is shaking. Lol.
