Atlanta today also placed OF Ronald Acuña Jr. on the 10-day injured list with a strained left hamstring and selected INF Rowdy Tellez to the major league roster. To make room on the 40-man roster, the club designated RHP Jhancarlos Lara for assignment.
@kylanjonesjones@bradypenn21@eudoxza With the braves injury history id fs say they could use a guy to let others DH for a day if they needed one off. He's nearly an everyday player and plays a different position everytime he starts pretty much. Id say he's worth 6.1 to this roster construction.
@kylanjonesjones@bradypenn21@eudoxza Important distinction. Nick Allen isnt a utility guy. Backup infielder is a better description. Dubon is a utility guy that can play the whole inf and the whole of, which we needed. He also makes much more contact and so far is doing well in the power while having great defense.
@HardcoreBraves Braves biggest targets going into the trade deadline? Is this the year they get a big time player or do they continue with the role-players/great depth pieces.
Basically this is like saying “hey force the smaller market teams to bid on players to force the bigger market teams to give us even more money.” We get it, you guys want the most dollars as possible, but there needs to be a level playing field and there definitely is not that currently in baseball. Hate to say it, but I’m not currently on the players side in this one 🤷♂️
