Atlanta Braves Thread - The "John Hart/ John Coppollela da real MVPs" Edition

[Regulator]

Aside from David Price and Alex Gordon, not much to throw free agent money at next offseason. Upton and Heyward, of course, but been there, done that, got the t-shirt. Nothing at 2B, nothing at 3B. Mat Latos.....meh. Greinke could opt out.

 

[GAVol]

Let's see this big time change in approach for Heyward.

 

[GAVol]

He actually pulled something.

 

[Blake25p]

Let's see this big time change in approach for Heyward.

Well...

 

[bleedorange0037]

Heyward's inevitable career year is off to a nice start.

 

[Vercingetorix]

We got their best prospect, got a couple assets, and saved potentially $90M for a closer.

Win

That sums it up. Sad to see Kimbrel go, but closers are overvalued, and Fredi was probably just gonna blow his arm out anyway.

 

[Regulator]

Boooooooooo

 

[GAVol]

He looked more bent over and had his hands lower and closer.

 

[zjcvols]

That hurt you guys

John Smoltz just went on a rant on MLBN about max effort bullpen guys that are treated like disposable razors.

I missed it, cause my TV was still over on NHL network after watching the Caps beat the Red Wings.

He's not a Brave anymore, he's gonna contend for the MVP. Glad i didn't listen to Reg and played him.

 

[TBrown]

nice to see matt holiday is still a defensive stalwart

Damn Yadi has lost weight

Crushing disappointment in the Stanley Cup playoffs is all I ever expect or have known. I'll live.

Mike Minor out there

J Hey

Why not just trade Freeman. You aren't doing him any favors by surrounding him with nothing outside of Simmons.

 

[zjcvols]

Because this team can seriously contend in two years.

 

[FalcoVol]

Been out all afternoon and evening and just learned of the trade. Icing on the cake for today.

I wonder if any season tickets were bought in hopes of seeing Kimbrel in action.

 

[underscore]

sigh

 

[FalcoVol]

Needs tears now.
