Spud2nique Posted July 11, 2023 Report Share Posted July 11, 2023 This is the most amount of players we’ve gotten in any year to my recollection, although I didn’t check. Lookin good at the break, let’s come back and stay healthy and humble and get it! Have fun tonight fellas! Much deserved! Would be pretty great if a Brave got the MVP tonight as well! @macdaddy Doin it for #44! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worry about peaking too soon but these guys are amazing. I feel you. I’ve never had this feeling of kind of being set up as far as young guys, contracts, prospects and just the chemistry we have is awesome. Feels like the 90’s but even better with younger dudes. I mean we had the elite pitching staff and positional players that were awesome like TP, Gant, etc. but these guys we have today are stars ️ of the league. Pretty awesome. Enjoy it @macdaddy ! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty remarkable what they're doing. I think they're very lucky Albies and Acuna were content with the deals they signed. Both could be making far more, which would make it harder to put the team together as they have 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fav dude. He’s prolly already my top 5 Brave all time. Love his spirit, his passion for the game and life in general. Acuña steals are off the charts too, funny as a kid I watched Ricky Henderson break the steals record from Lou Brock. Acuña is on a pace I’ve never seen.

We’d ask nicely of course… 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in 94 I was terribly upset about how they handled the Ron Gant leg injury despite Ronnie riding . Ya, cut throat type of team, Braves are no doubt. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true but they aren't cutting Acuna if he's playing at a high level when the time comes. they will pay. Freeman wouldn't have been in LA if he and is agent weren't screwing around. Dansby needed to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seemed like there wasn't a lot of concern in the clubhouse about him potentially leaving. He's obviously still hitting but will he hold up through the contract?

Honestly I thought Grissom was taking over but Arcia wtheck, that dude when he was with the Brewers I thought he was a scrub, he is the biggest surprise over the last couple years for me. Solid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
