He's been money for the Braves this season. Loved that signing and he's healthy now. Nice gamble by the Braves.

 

Trade?

It's a new forum and almost a new year. Not directing at anyone in particular, but can everyone at least attempt to turn over a new leaf and stop with the constant bickering? We are all too old for th

Flaherty and Profar would both be good signings. High upside and no QO attached. They'd be my targets. But Pivetta and Tony Taters (Santander) are almost underrated at this point. The QOs suck bu

I feel that's literally giving a GM no credit, where credit is due. He doesn't just print contracts for people to sign who want to play here.   I think there's a lot of reasons players choose not to

But yeah

 

Right, forgot Cole.

 

Then I guess it's Wheeler and Nola? But they're way behind Sale in pretty much everything. Then it's the cohort of arms that all look like longshots to even hit 2000 innings.

5-1, 10.97 K/9, 1.69 BB/9, 2.95 ERA, 2.62 FIP, 1.2 fWAR and 52 K's in 42.2 innings over 7 starts. Looking great tonight against the Cubs as well.

 

I hope he holds up this year and next and the Braves end up picking up the 2026 option. It's fun when guys finish their career strong and make a HoF case.

... as long as it's not for the Red Sox so yes that would be cool to see :)

Burnes or Cease or Gallen (a bit old already)

Logan Webb on track sort of

Logan Gilbert or George Kirby

 

Some candidates but the injury risk is just so high with pitchers these days.

 

The first three need to basically never get hurt again and stay elite for another 7 years.

 

Funny thing is NOBODY thought Sale would hold up and supply these innings. Some 25 year old from right now will end up with his numbers.

 

I think George Kirby could be the best SP in baseball so he's my bet

You wouldn't just start cheating after throwing a no hitter. Too bad we didn't spot it.

Same s*** with Domingo German last year. No way he wasn’t cheating during that start

Bieber could have been on that track I think but we'll see if he could stay healthy when he returns. Needs to pitch at an elite level for 6 to 7 years.

 

Others could be Cease, Burnes, and Gallen like Laika mentioned. Maybe Luis Castillo.

 

I would also throw Gausman into the mix. He's a bit older than those names, but has 31.3 career fWAR thus far. If he continues to have a couple more elite 5 WAR seasons, he gets above 50 career WAR. He needs to still pitch well and elite into his late 30's though.

Erick Fedde has a 2.60 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 50:14 K:BB through 52 innings with a 3.88 FIP and 0.9 fWAR. White Sox got themselves a nice trade chip if he keeps this up.

Why are they stupid?

 

I didn’t see the play in question, but I’d have a hard time believing many plays only get made 2 out of 100 times

Correct. They are great plays that only get made 2 out of 100 times, to be exact.
