ATL via Tre 4
I had them between 70 and 80 wins. I will be glad to be wrong, though.

Y’all taking me back with the mention of TBS. Sitting in front of the tv with my pop watching the games. He used to get so pissed at Andruw. My pop would say Andruw is the only player he knows that’ll strikeout and smile :mjlol:



When I heard this, I knew what time it was.

I really would be cool with us moving Demeritte to 2B and Albies to SS and trading Dansby while he still got that value for a legit starting pitcher who can be great

Demeritte has a ways to go but yeah, this or move Camargo to SS and Riley or Alexander at 3B
Travis was always the next Javy Baez to me and see how much Baez improved. Travis has MVP potential. He is that talented.

Of course the ATL

Riley probably doesn't make the big club this year but he's hit .300 or better in Mississippi & Gwinnett so you gotta think he's the 3B of the future. I like Camargo but im not sure I love him at SS over Dansby. But I'm not convinced Dansby is the future at SS either. It'll be an interesting decision for AA

i don't see it. javy was going through his struggles and development in the majors and is now 25. travis is going through all his struggles in the minors and doesn't seem to developing (actually went backwards in his repeat AA year) and is already 23 going on 24 a month.

You got to watch him play. The stats don't tell the complete story. For him the issue is off ball stuff. He is an excellent fastball hitter.

Some players, you gotta watch them play. Plus defender for both infield and outfield. Is a good base runner. Can hit for power. Some of the best pop in the system. He can play.
