Alright, so what now?

February 10, 2019 by Rob Copenhaver

There were a lot of eggs for a long time in the J.T. Realmuto basket. And those eggs were emptied out of said basket and smashed on the ground. So at this point, we’ve not been told we are in on anyone by the front office. I mean, have we? Payroll currently stands at around $114M, and if you care to read anything…

RIP The J.T. Realmuto Saga

February 7, 2019 by Rob Copenhaver

As you know, JT Realmuto has been traded to the Phillies. Thank the Lord. I’m so sick of hearing about him. And for what the Phillies gave up for him, they better get two really good years out of him, especially in their stadium.

But I’m supposed to be led to believe that the NL East teams are VASTLY improved. That the Braves…

44 Greatest Atlanta Braves

#38: Jonny Venters

February 4, 2019 by Rob Copenhaver

See the 44 Greatest Atlanta Braves?here.

I repent. He was originally not on this list, but Alex Remington has shown me my erroneous ways. Jonny Venters belongs on this list.

First off, Venters is going on his 5th season with Atlanta as of this writing. And being only 34, he could conceivably spend more…

The Great Teardown and Rebuild

Trade Retrospective: Craig Kimbrel?

February 1, 2019 by Rob Copenhaver

I’m hoping to do a little series on the “big” deals of the rebuild. The roster-gutting ones of Jason Heyward, Justin Upton, Andrelton Simmons, and Craig Kimbrel/Mudge. The Andrelton one might be the most painful, but trading Craig Kimbrel partly to rid yourself of the Mudge contract was right up there,…

After no upsets in the first round (let’s be honest; are there really 32 good baseball movies?), we’re on to the quarterfinals.

A classic R-rated ’80s comedy, Major League is basically baseball’s Slap Shot: a…

With Markakis Signed, How Will Playing Time Shake Out?

January 25, 2019 by Rob Copenhaver

I just wanted to put up a fresh post and give us a new thread.

How might playing time shake out if the Braves don’t add anyone else? Well, let’s take a look at last year. These were the top PA earners last year:

Player	PAs
Freddie Freeman	707

Well, he’s back, and that’s about all the excitement I can muster at this time. It’s 1 year, $4M, with a club option for $6M or a $2M buyout. There are two things I’m hoping:

1) $4M is not a lot of money and certainly not a…

Catching Unit Preview, Sans Realmuto

January 21, 2019 by Rob Copenhaver

As it sits, there’s no J.T. Realmuto coming. It doesn’t mean we don’t have the pieces to easily acquire him that we are probably actively looking to trade. But alas, he’s still a Marlin.

So with 25 days left until pitchers and catchers report, our catching unit is Brian McCann and Tyler Flowers. What can we…
