we were never gonna pay the money it would take to resign him. fried may need tj surgery but there is around a 90% recovery rate from that. you buy low bc he is a level prospect we never were gonna get in exchange for a 1 year deal

Peterson is worst case a utility guy and may end up getting garbage cj out of the line up once peraza is ready to take over 2b

the other peterson is kind of a project but he has raw power

smith is the most intriguing to me. dude stole 84 bases last year and makes solid contact. definitely our lead off guy of the future


now we need to deal gattis. he is gonna be a disaster in LF. young with power and on a bargain contract for the next few years. can get a great haul for him from an AL team. also need to deal kimbrell. no need to have a dominant closer on a team that will lose 90+ games. also when closers lose it, they lose it in a hurry. need to sell high on him.

overall pretty decent offseason. need to get rid of those garbage bj and cj contracts and take fredi gonzalez and drop him in the worst neighborhood in Atlanta and hope someone takes that fukk out

really like what our front office is doing tbh

none of this is changing the fact that Liberty Media isn't giving the Braves a competitive operating budget. Their payroll will stay middle of the MLB.

Cobb County and Liberty Media deserve each other.
