@SportsTalkATL Last - LORT knows I wish more ppl would've listened to me years and years ago.. I swear on my children I've been saying it since they won and before they won he isn't very good. U don't have to be good to be lucky one time. Specially right when you take something over.. he is bad
@SportsTalkATL Bro who cares anymore is what I keep asking myself.. this team is pointless to pull for they have no chance to win a World Series.. AA has built a team literally incapable again when there was every reason and resource.. why ppl still talk about it both ways is amazing - I can't
@scottcoleman55 Alex Anthopolous in his heart of hearts knows he isnt trying and the organization isnt just yet where he wants it to be in before he starts to actually trying - I hope he does one day - but he has decided he gets what he can so far and that's hopefully playoff $
@scottcoleman55 He will have enough that when landscape aligns with his value, he will be able to ride the overwhelming amount of value built lt up for years and years to feed and slow deplete to compete in future. I think he trying to build a dynasty- just not with this bunch!
@scottcoleman55 Mode.. I promise I can support with every move.. A team is either in build mode or compete mode- can't really be in both but rare cases. If building up - you acquire value, hold assets, save and conservatively move with future in mind.. that's all he has shown us.. he banks that
@scottcoleman55 What we necessarily need to be available available and these are bets and gambles he took years ago with these years in mind I believe.. the real truth is we may have a real chance 28-29. AA thinks way he doing it basically 2028 and every year after.. he is still in acquire build
@scottcoleman55 Roster plus financial flexibility compared to holes - he has been working to 2027-2028-29the entire time about.. my issue is he has messed up a lot in the mean time over last few years and could still be in this position while making those clubs better and 2027 there won't be..
@scottcoleman55 Of this cores tenure and then be able to roll and flip through a smooth transition "his" core.. the next two years he is positioned well but the market still will dictate can he acquire the talent "is it available" he is positioned best.. dodgers aging - look league wide-
@scottcoleman55 I know he has been banking for some years to accrue value but meaningfully value gather and wage for the future and ride the core.. "This core will never really fully be AA's core" I believe decades from now.. he inherited this a lot!! He wants to put his stamp on the backend..
@scottcoleman55 And just a few holes to fill.. he has been banking that there is more talent then competitive teams + teams with samr needs + teams in same bully money pay level for what historically have been surplus positions league wide (righty outfield bat, serviceable ss, pop value do's) ..
@scottcoleman55 Bro man!! Been saying the same thing for years!!!
Listen really I understand now tho - he has the future all in sights.. I promise u if I could talk to u in person I could explain the entire situation with AA what it's been and what it is.. 2027 this summer he will have money..
@MattPowers31 Team gets better or worse he literally just disrespected and disrupted and replaced with less.. I can argue he got worse in each trade as much as anyone can argue we improved.. for that reason alone there is an argument to be had, we got worse and he failed
@MattPowers31 Ur a clown! Nobody is giving u a cookie for handing out nice grades for AA.. this was child's play.. none of those trades too skill, knowledge, clarity, perspective, decision making skills, negotiation skill, vision, clarity and understanding of needs and adequate resources used
@ReggieChatman I feel broken as a fan! Look I'm not an idiot I can rationalize and understand how and I expected it honestly but I'm still shocked and embarrassed that it did happen.. it makes me sad to know I'll track every play and move still but know 1 man failed at his job and its wastedayr
