Riley is beyond lost at the plate. It has been going on for long enough now that I think this is just who he is.



I've hated how we've had people lumping Acuna with Riley when talking about issues at the plate.

Yeah, Ronnie has to stop always hunting the first pitch, but his issues have largely been a BABIP thing. He's barreling the ball a lot. Kinda like with Ozuna in 2024, it's only a matter of time before more his these 95+ EV shots are going to be XBH and not outs.

Riley meanwhile, outside of one series in Philly, has been completely lost at the dish.

Top tier lefty bullpen arm is top of the list for the trade deadline

Having willed the Braves to victory on a Wednesday afternoon not too long ago, I’m proud to say that I have contributed to the team’s success!

The Red Sox would likely trade Chapman

Perez could be a lefty for the bullpen in the playoffs.

We need that and a 2-3 rotation arm. Another bat to stick in LF would be good too.

AA likes to go to the twins well a lot it seems like.

If they want to tear it down Joe Ryan could be an option

He would likely cost a lot though he has another year of control and pretty cheap

I just posted that a few posts up

The Red Sox are a clown show. We could likely get him

I'd love to take a shot on deGrom. Probably wouldn't cost much to get him. He has one more guaranteed year left after this season, but it's at $37M. Could we get Texas to take Profar in return to offset some of the salary?

Aren’t the rangers only like 1.5 games back of the As?

Marlins beat Dodgers, so the Braves are only up 7. But the Braves do have the best record in MLB.
