Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Apparently 3 teams are in heavy pursuit. He'd actually be a great fit for the Jays, taking reps at LF/C/DH/1B.
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Gattis undergoing physical for the Astros DH ABs baby! Napoli 2.0 They already have one Chris Carter, why do they need another?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Because this one can ostensibly play C now and then.
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Apparently 3 teams are in heavy pursuit. He'd actually be a great fit for the Jays, taking reps at LF/C/DH/1B. That would be a fantastic fit.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 That would be a fantastic fit. Gattis playing full time at RC would have a shot at 40 HR. I can dream, but it doesn't appear we're in play for him. We'd probably just turn around and trade him for Frank Francisco anyway.
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 They already have one Chris Carter, why do they need another? Because Jon Singleton is basically a replacement level player?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) I feel bad for the GM that takes over for John Hart. What is the point of tearing down a roster before the new GM is hired? You're tying him or her to a slew of young assets that he had no say in acquiring. Edited January 14, 2015 by Dr. Dinger
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Braves get nothing of real value. John Hart is destroying that franchise.
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Braves offense is now so so bad Markakis Upton Freeman Johnson/Callaspo/Peterson Callaspo/Peterson/Peraza Andrelton Bethancourt Ziolo Almonte/Toscano/whatever Alberto Callaspo might be their 3rd best hitter....
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Folty is a reliever and Ruiz is a 2nd division/utility guy. Lol.
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Braves offense is now so so bad Markakis Upton Freeman Johnson/Callaspo/Peterson Callaspo/Peterson/Peraza Andrelton Bethancourt Ziolo Almonte/Toscano/whatever It's a good thing they signed Markakis. Their lineup might not be competitive without him.

The Markakis signing is just completely mystifying in light of the Upton/Gattis/Heyward trades. No idea what Hart is doing.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 No idea what Hart is doing. Destroying what's left of his legacy. Hard to believe the same guy was so succesful in Cleveland.
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Braves get nothing of real value. John Hart is destroying that franchise. Well I wouldn't say nothing of real value. Folty has big warts but he reminds me of Eovaldi back in 2012 when he was part of the Hanley trade and everyone just assumed he was nothing because his peripherals had never been that good.

Braves are in the running for that #1 pick, plan is in place!
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Freddie Freeman's RBIs are going to tank, but his OBP is going to be sublime.
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Freddie Freeman's RBIs are going to tank, but his OBP is going to be sublime. Freeman could be a 150 wRC+ guy this year. OBP is going north of 0.400.
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Freddie got fingered. Poor Fred. $135m / 8 Years (2014 - 2021) signed by Atlanta Braves on 2/5/2014 Have fun on the super awesome John Hart scorched earth tour for the next 7 years, Fred!
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Freeman could be a 150 wRC+ guy this year. OBP is going north of 0.400. 150 is probably pushing it unless he BABIPs .370+ again. He does hit a ton of liners though, so he'll usually have a pretty high BABIP. Still love him as a fantasy asset.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 While he's trading superstars for s***** returns and releasing Kris Medlen, can we go ahead and poach Kimbrel?
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 At least he won't be on the draft panel comparing every white outfielder to Mike Trout.

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Fujikawa will be collecting saves by May because Feliz is awful. Perfect opportunity to get him for cheap!
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted January 17, 2015 Posted January 17, 2015 Wut Did North actually trade TJ House? For Chris Owings?!
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 House really isn't that great for the DDL settings, lol. Successful overhype by North. Still a fair trade though. I'm not a big Owings fan.
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 17, 2015 Author Posted January 17, 2015 Actually I don't really get why North wants Owings...
