I've never had any real hope we would sign him. I'm still going to post that they should sign him, even knowing they wont.

We won’t win a playoff series if we don’t add a #1SP. Regular season we can be okay. Also what is wrong w Acuna? Struggling Not worried about Ronald at all. We're 9 games in. I do wish he'd stop playing winter ball, though. It's pointless. Agree. I don’t get why he plays and why Braves let him play.

And if what's out there isn't better than what you already have in the minors, then it's pointless. Elder and/or Winans will have to step up until either Smith-Schawver or Waldrup are ready... Don’t need a starter right now but eventually we need to get one.

We’re not going to get a #1 but we can do a lot better than a gaggle of guys who aren’t good enough to make our #5 spot. The issue is we should have done better in the off-season protecting ourselves from this very issue by adding a couple of legit #3 or even #4 starters. Thank god Lopez appears capable of being a decent starter and thank god sale hadn’t gone down yet….and we’re just 9 games into the season. What if Lopez can’t handle it or wears down because of the innings or Sale gets hurt…..or Morton has a 5.50 ERA season, which he’s bound to eventually do…..then our starting pitching Will be in shambles. It doesn’t help that Fried doesn’t look right either so far.

Let's hope things don't get that bad.

Starting to have huge buyers remorse That was a dumbass trade from the start. Done to accommodate Sarge's idiotic baseball player guy bullshit. Pissed me off at the time and pisses me off even more now. Stupid

He had the UCL brace procedure not TJ. Still out for a year but I understand it is a slightly quicker recovery time.

He went to the A1 Ligament Surgery walk in clinic and had the Pete Moylan version of the surgery done. Much cheaper route. Didn’t Snitker just say yesterday he didn’t have any news about what Strider needed done?

The less they tell him, the better, that's for sure.
