Oh and just a reminder... May 22nd: It might be time for AA to call the tigers about Shane Green I knew nothing about him then I had just read an article that said the braves were looking at him. In fact up until he got to Atlanta I had never seen him pitch and had no Idea his stuff was weak

AA signing extensions with Albies and Acuna ---very impressive Acuna was great. Albies could end up bad because Albies clearly got took advantage of. And down the road it could become an issue

In fact up until he got to Atlanta I had never seen him pitch and had no Idea his stuff was weak He has a great breaking ball. He's just left stuff out over the plate. It's a location issue more than a stuff issue. You had also stated a bit prior to that comment that you just wanted AA to get somebody who wouldn't walk batters, and he got exactly that with Martin. So he did 2 exact things you wanted him to do and because of early struggles you claim he's a terrible GM. That is hindsight, and short sighted small sample hindsight at that. It's not easy thing picking these players.... that's baseball. AA signing extensions with Albies and Acuna ---very impressive Acuna was great. Albies could end up bad because Albies clearly got took advantage of. And down the road it could become an issue lol you are really reaching now trying to make your point by claiming the Albies signing could end up bad.

What did we learn from this tread? Not much. Just a reactionary going on a small sample size. Not signing Carter Stewart was a bit disappointing, but hell he's going to Japan now, so who cares.

Again other than Donaldson I think every move AA has made on personal has been horrible. COPPY was much better at talent appraisal. And so was Wren yes wren. Ade some bad signings with the uptons. But he was awesome with Acuna, Albies

I think all three relief pitchers we got are going to be fine going into September and make some kind of impact down the stretch into the playoffs. We've had a lot of bad luck with 2 strike counts and bloop hits. Like a LOT of bad luck.
Greene had a 1-2-3 inning last night. Melancon needs to stop being the closer as Greene gets it together again.

Melancon needs to stop being the closer as Greene gets it together again. I think they will as well. I am hoping they get all of this bad luck and bad outings out of their system now instead of in October.

Anyone here younger than 27? I'm usually on the patience train, especially with Dansby before this year

In the end we would up with maybe out young catcher of the future so the Carter Stewart think might be a blessing in disguise The best defensesive catcher is the draft, if he can hit league average that is a hell of a player
