Let the whole world know i rep Zone 4

I'm not gonna use the B word with Dansby but I'm concerned about breh. He's hitting .208 this spring with the 6th most ABs (48) this spring with 10 hits, no doubles and 1 triple :francis: :francis:

I know it's Spring Training but typically when people say "oh it's just training camp/preseason/spring training" that normally ain't good

Acunas coming and they'll have a sh1t ton of money to spend next offseason

With what they on the farm they're gonna be loaded next year
Acuna is a 15-20 HR bat.

I think people are getting carried away at his projection. He should be good. But you’re not looking at Charlie Blackmon here.

Time will tell tough.

The money makes no difference.
No big FA will sign with Atlanta.

Not Machado.
Not Harper.
And anybody else who would go there doesn’t matter.

When I was little me, my sister and cousins would spend the night at my grandma crib every weekend and she’s order pizza or make burgers for us and we would watch the Braves at Fulton County Stadium on TBS

RIP granny she loved them boys :mjcry:
Reason why the Braves are my favorite

I really wanna hate these nikkas for moving to Cobb County and hyping the shyt out of their cac savior Dansby to the detriment of his development and the team in general but I’ve fallen in love with the farm system and I’m looking for something to take football out of my #1 spot so....

Go Braves :francis:

Allegedly. Smart move on both sides, if he's as good as advertised he could make $30 million a year at some point. Braves did the smart baseball thing and tried to lock him up long term while he's young and under their control

BTW, Braves Futures All Stars (including Acuna) vs. the regular Braves at STP. Sucks it ain't on TV tonight :francis:

The way players are setting records in arbitration, you can’t blame Acuna for skipping 30 million. He could get 10+ in a few years anyway without giving up FA years.
