mammajamma Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I just can't for the life of me understand why Corbin is still a starter, instead of seeing what a young guy can do. Unless it's just blatant tanking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinfan2k Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 We are not trading Soto unless we get a major haul. Otherwise you wait til next offseason and see if he takes another offer of 475? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it's just blatant tanking If he was blocking someone with upside, I’d agree with you. But we are still running Anibal Sanchez out there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess it doesn't make sense if it messes up service time (I'll never understand these dumb rules). I just need to stop watching this year I guess ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 God, on top of wanting them to not trade him. Now I extra want that so these jerks can climb over each other about why it didn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo#44 Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 For the approxmiate AAV we offered Soto, the Braves are paying Acuna AND Riley...****ing Boras. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcl05 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Acuna, Riley, Albees, and Olson for the foreseeable future for TOTAL of 55mil/yr. Damn the barves. And launch Boras into sun. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcl05 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Albies at 7/35, Acuna at 8/100, both signed before they broke out. Olsen at 8/168 and Riley at 10/212 both underpaid too. I hate them so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 A friend got free tickets to tomorrow's game from his work. So knowing my luck, Soto will get traded. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BraveWarrior Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I understand the pros and cons to both sides on this, and I feel like it makes the most sense to get a big haul of talented prospects and move on (we're in need of a major rebuild whether Soto is on the team or not), but I don't get the gut feeling that this is going to happen for some reason. Less than 24 hours to see how it plays out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
