He should be better than Tyler Flowers

You might be better than "Flow", as Byrd calls him.

The Braves will get Shane Greene

Go With The Flow

ya, never heard of two of the 4 but it still sounds better than Pache.

Tristan Beck was a fourth round pick in 2018 if memory serves. Wentz is a valuable young lefty starter. Travis Demeritte has about 20 dingers in Gwinnett, as he’s just now showing his promise as an offensive threat.

The Braves signed Diamondbacks catcher John Ryan Murphy in exchange for cash considerations

Best analysis I've seen yet on this guy ...

John Ryan Murphy is the name of either a serial killer or the third lead actor in some CBS procedural drama.

I thought he was a pop singer from the 1970s for a minute(John Michael Murphy)

Owed 14m. next season. Approx. 4.6 m. left this year. Interesting how much SF is going to pay.

Or maybe the lead in a boy-band...

Braves acquire catcher from Diamondbacks, John Ryan Murphy, as a depth pickup.

Big song was “Wildfire, “ the name we call our former bullpen.
We’ve got 3 new dudes, and Jacob Webb coming back!

Dumpster Fire would be a better name for the Braves former bullpen

I give Liberty a huge thumbs up for the trades they've made today

 

[Buzzbomb]

The new ‘pen:
Greene, Melancon, Martin, Webb, Newky, Swarzak, FNS(never after 7 pm or 7 innings). If we send Riley down and keep 8 relievers...then Tomlin.

It does sound good(especially Green) , but then we don't know yet who we gave up ........

I’m giving Anthopoulos and Perry Maniason credit.

Some rumors of one piece of the package ...



... could explain the weird serial killer/catcher acquisition.
