Yep and basically gave up nothing to get all these guys. Wilson and Jackson both have potential, but are blocked right now so they should get a decent chance with their new clubs.Braves did good today

Look at the difference in production, not just average.Color me unimpressed by the Braves moves. The pickups don't really seem all that much better than what we had on hand. Duvall and Pederson were hitting 0.230 with their respective teams. Soler is hitting below 0.200 at KC and strikes out a TON. Hard for me to see the improvement in our offense with that....
But no more Panda hugs after HR's... You can't discount how much getting hugged by Pablo with an oversized Panda head meant to the rest of the guys in the clubhouse.Love these additions. Duvall is who he is and I'm glad that we didn't re-sign him in the offseason, but with injuries we definitely need him now. I also wanted to sign Rosario in the offseason, but it didn't come to pass. He's only a rental, but he definitely strengthens the bench for the rest of the season. Also, I really like that we went after guys who didn't cost much in terms of prospects, and we can have Duvall and Pederson for next year because of their options which will provide depth and strengthen the bench for next year.
How about let’s give his Mendoza batting average to the Mets? It might cost you the pennant. Half the time or more a cop was wearing the suit while Panda had a cool snack in the clubhouse. I can put a pillow below my chest inside my shirt and take up one of your roster spots. Problem is at 62 in August, I can probably hit better than him, even with the pillow.

I saw that Ozuna had the charges changed from felony to misdemeanor. Does that mean he might come back this year? Would the Braves/MLB let him?Rodriguez has pitched 3 scoreless innings. Soler has been on fire. Duvall, steady and he’s saved 4 defensive runs this year. Rosario getting ready to rehab. D’Arnaud is about ready with Anderson and Ynoa. I think this is meeting most of the needs, @kg01 . Nothing can be done about Soroka, Ozuna for this year.
Here is next year’s schedule:
Atlanta Braves 2022 regular season schedule
Major League Baseball and the MLBPA came to an agreement Thursday on a new CBA ending a lockout that lasted 99 days. The 2022 season will feature a full 162 games and will begin on April 7. Major...www.talkingchop.com
We wont see Ozuna until the MLB's investigation is complete. After that there is definitely a chance the Braves keep him on the roster. No way to know for sure. He'll probably serve a suspension at the beginning of next season in line with the other recent domestic violence incidents in the MLB.I saw that Ozuna had the charges changed from felony to misdemeanor.

I kept wondering why the Cardinals wouldn't take that dude out after he'd faced the 3 minimum batters. He was comically bad.Is anyone awake on here? What’s happened to this site?
Braves scored 6 in the 8th with 2 outs and 2 strikes on Riley, and then he homers to tie it. Atlanta wins 8-4, and goes over .500 for the FIRST TIME this year!
1 1/2 back…ready to get the silver slugger catcher(we’ve tried 7 of them this season)back, plus two starters. Whew Whoo or is it Whoo Hooo??
Nothing from Mike in a long time. Have wondered about him as well. I know he used to be very active, but he is also up there in years. Hopefully he is just taking a hiatus but that would be surprising given his normal activity.No feathers for you my good Buddy. The little one you have probably stuffs the yellow ones from his Sesame Street Big Bird toy in your mouth too much.
Riley and Swanson are elite fielders. To me, they both hit enough for left side infielders. I don’t understand how true baseball people want them traded? Makes no sense. Salaries are reasonable, particularly with control. Good strong arms, great glove men, very few errors and fine production numbers on offense. And they get around the bases easily.
Anyone heard from Mike? I keep trying to reach him. Too long for a lost password.
