@crazywacko @ShortStopBall I doubt HSK could have been moved at the deadline. AA can not admit failure- ergo he kept him. It’s not just AA this organization doesn’t believe in dead money even when they are wrong. So he stayed and JM had to go which unless HSK hits bombs in P/O’s it was a bad decision.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@ShortStopBall Hopefully more of a hit than our lineup lately. 😂

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@RyanLottinger @MHIIisKing Vaughn just needs to settle in 😂

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@bravesTRUTH @SportsTalkATL Team will win in the regular season enough and make the playoffs. However most likely a quick exit in the playoffs unless 3 of our guys hit like MVP’s which seems highly unlikely.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@dylanxshort @CShaw_16 @scottcoleman55 Refusing to trade any your top dozen prospects to win now is derelict of duty. Comparing not trading the prospects to a scenario where he did not trade Baldwin is a dishonest answer of an example. Realistically none of our prospects can even help this year unlike other teams.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@crazywacko @ShortStopBall Basically yes. If I managed I would use HSK either I would use Mateo…oh wait DFA. Listen to AA he prioritizes defense at short so he called up Jarvis. So Murphy will get left out because you need either Yaz or Kane in the OF and their power. WE is limited.

@MrAbbeetim Michael Chiklis

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@crazywacko @ShortStopBall TBF AA made that trade and signing.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@usc11mtc @perrydawg57 @scottcoleman55 I’ve watched him play defense this year. Maybe advanced metrics needs to be recalculated.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@ChoppinBravos Not upgrading Dom made nit sense to me. AA the past few years not being aggressive with the SS position. If u listen to him tho his thought process is play great D and IF the rest of team hits it’s ok. Not a good plan.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@terrykack23 @ShortStopBall I have some um…not good news for you. 😂

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@ShortStopBall Our hitters not challenging ABS is going to be pivotal in the playoffs. It’s a tool this team refuses to utilize.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@GaryPatriot1776 I love DeSantis but he screwed Florida by not endorsing Collins or even Renner and let Donald’s walk in take it. DeSantis term is over and conservatives lost-at least for the next 4 years.

@CStarks8au6 @scottcoleman55 Choice #2

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@CrosbyBaseball Arenado was so salty after that play by Riley he left the game. 😂

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@SleeperBraves Should be higher Sleeper. I think there is a west coast bias with some of those prospect lists. Mariners always seem to be at the top in ranking but not seeing it in the majors. Dodgers are usually overrated too. MH and Drake were not ranked as top 10 in MLB PL and they won ROY.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@CrosbyBaseball @MrChadBishop Now if we get these guys in the bullpen throwing gas. -I like the unexpected additions. I feel like Waldrep has a better chance to start over Strider. Put Strider in the bullpen and see if his MPH’s go up. Should we be concerned about the lack of news on Robert Suarez?

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@Lakitu886 @Braves Yeah probably need to bat DB second against both LH and RH pitchers. Acuna is better in that lead off spot.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@KobieGarvin @CrosbyBaseball They were great but the post season is different. Stuff plays up. Maybe GH elbow has taken time to heal because recently he’s been Kenny Powers. I like the Mahle pickup but wanted that SP2 and an LH bat upgrade. Remember we haven’t one a P/O series since 2021.

[Sam Bassett @SamBassett81]

@CrosbyBaseball Lindsay…talk about doubling down on a poor decision by umps from yesterday. Also this series feels like what the future holds for the Braves in the post season without a strong SP2. Yanks shoved Fried/Cole/Schlittler that’s a nasty top 3.
