Preach.

Problem for the Nats is they won their WS with basically only 2 quality bullpen guys. We were trotting 43 year old Fernando Rodney out in the 7th that year. It wasn't a big deal because we won the WS, but it's another hole that has to be filled today - in addition to our starting staff being underwhelming.

Parade down here is incredible! So happy for our Braves! If only they could have wrapped it up here in ATL to see the Commissioner get booed even louder than in H-Town! How’d taking away our All-Star game work out for ya?? Chop on Braves fans, chop on!!

As a Yankee fan this is my biggest problem with Cashman. Ever since Mo retired we have done nothing except sign guys that hit 210 with 30 hr’s and no element of speed or fielding to go along with it. Like if your an older limping guy that ever had a multiple hr game in the majors you have a job with the Yankees. We have 72 players with pop. For the love of God address the pitching staff. Not just one big splash in the starting rotation but quality guys throughout. We do not need another god damn hr hitter. Look for defense and average if you wanna address the lineup. Than Judge can move back out of the two spot. Lets get some guys on base for Judge and Stanton for Christs sake. They are your cornerstones. You get guys on base with them batting 3 and 4 and the lineup is lethal. Stop wasting them with sub par pitching and bad batting orders - fuckin boone has no idea. Buck would retool this team in one year by doing these simple things. Problem is he will give a big fuck u to Cashman and the analytics assholes so we extended yes nan Boone.
Oh and make Sevy the closer. Guy came back and was lights out in relief. Avoid further injury and lock up the closer role for ten years. Sevy can be the next Mo.

Braves also beat the Brewers, Dodgers, and Astros to win - coincidentally the Nats also beat all 3 teams (and the Cards in the NLCS) to win the WS 2 years ago too.

My thoughts Exactly!

Although I personally did follow the Atlanta Braves in the 90's. So I do have something of a soft-spot for the Braves.

You like a division rival getting a lot better? I don't like it at all. 🤢🤮

I love the other moves the Mets have made too. Marte, Escobar, and Canha will be nice upgrades.

Marte is a stud. The trade deadline worked out perfectly for the Braves, but he was a guy I was hoping we could get. He is one my favorite non-Braves players in the league.
