  1. Atlanta rarely pays b ig for anyone, even their own. I don't think our minor league system is strong and deep enough to fill all the holes we will have. We will need some money to fill the holes our farm can't fill. Some of our best prospects are too far away or too questionable to count on. We also have to re-sign or replace... JD Wacha Hill Strahm Kike Counting on Sale or Paxton my be a pipedream.
  2. That and he seems to be a natural hitter unfazed by tough times. I think he has better years ahead.
  3. Dalbec finally gets a hit. WOW! Remember Bobby Dee was at .595 on June 8th. He hit .916 the rest of the way. Cora's patience paid off with him, last year.
  4. I'm so glad JD's bat has slowed to this speed.
  5. Where would we be without Schreiber?
  6. Finally Arroyo does something.
  7. The wing and a prayer Booby Dee is getting close to being demoted.
  8. You assume Cordero and Dalbec can't fix themselves.
  9. I believe that is the reason, tonight, but I'd keep him there. He's better v RHPs than Verdugo and this whole L-R-L thing is over-rated. Who is afraid of LOOGIEs anymore?
  10. So, choose the best one... DEVERS FOREVERS!
  11. He's gotta lead the league in RBI per PA, or close...
  12. The 5th slot is actually more important than the 4 slot. Keep Story 5th, even v righties.
  13. Lots of hellos, this inning.
  14. Our 1Bmen have a a whopping .686 OPS since May 13th! (.693 since May 14th)
  15. Yes, but it makes sense vs RHPs, too.
  16. So, there is no "perfect world."
  17. If you think of the most reasonable (and realistic) deals imaginable, what would we have left over to fill the other holes we have?
  18. This also means they only have 6 left vs them.
  19. Wacha v Keuchek LHP 1. Kike 2. Devers 3. JD 4, Bogey 5. Story (finally up 5th) 6. Verdugo 7. Vaz 8, Dalbec 9. Arroyo
  20. I agree. Wachas sometimes are Martin Perez's and Richards, too.
  21. Indeed. My point was based on the idea that Sale would Chris Freakin' Sale for 4 years and his a contract for $145M/4 for that Chris Sale is not unreasonable. They gave him $145M/5, and appear to be very wrong on the assumption he'd return to form and for 4 years. I'm not trying to compare Verlander to Sale. THere are way to many differences between them, including length of deals, but the Atsros gave Verlander $66M/2 and he gave them 6 IP over those 2 years. They were not all that deterred and gave him $25M/1 for this year. I guess we are not the only team wishing an aging pitcher can keep pitching very well. Not everyone is a Scherzer.
  22. Agreed, and I'm fine with the Kelly choice, but I'd prefer to see Houck moved to closer and a Seabold/Winckowski call-up to fill in the long man/piggy back pitcher that Houck is, now.
  23. I think the money they gave Sale factored in an expected missed season. They also factored in he'd be Chris freakin' Sale the other 4 years and not Freakin' Chris Sale.
