They're all too busy vying for NL MVP or Cy Young to worry about top 100 prospects lists.

maybe if ownership knew what they were doing they'd actually win it. instead they're running strider into the ground.

[SoutheastBeast1]

Who else is excited for the Rays-Pirates World Series?

[SoutheastBeast1]

Holy sh*t it’s over for the Mets. Imagine getting swept by the Tigers when you throw both your “aces”.

Nice to see the annual meltdown come earlier this year

how about that sean murphy

[SoutheastBeast1]

how about that sean murphy

He's been really good. Acuna and him are the MVPs of the offense so far.

They do everything they can to manipulate the fans into thinking they're giving full effort. Just look at the Murphy trade as an example of that. This is what the Braves media will headline as the big addition of the offseason. But it wasn't a real addition. It was sleight of hand addition by subtraction because all they did was flipped a better offensive catcher for a better defensive catcher. Pure manipulation so they could pretend they "added" something to the 2023 team. No you didn't. All you did was reshuffled the roster a bit with a new name. That's all they ever do though, look for some media angle to sell the fans that are too stupid to recognize the difference and excite them to come spend money.

They did the same thing with Olson last year. Try to distract everyone with Freeman leaving by getting Olson in a trade BEFORE Freeman signed with someone else. All while shipping off tons of valuable prospects and selling it as getting a younger model at 1B. Anyone with a brain knew they downgraded significantly, and quite frankly more expensively, albeit in a different currency (because they're cheap with actual money).


Tired of this bullsh*t and it's not even April.

All the bull**** has lead the 2nd best record in baseball

I’m always happy to be wrong when it works out in favor of them being better.

You guys seem to think I want Murphy to suck when I make comments like that.

It doesn’t change the fact they still ignored the outfield and SS. If they win the World Series in spite of that it doesn’t make anything I said less true.

I’m not going to sit here and say I wouldn’t think they’d be even better shape if they filled those holes. They would be. And the October record is the only one that matters by the time November rolls around.

No one in Atlanta gives a f*ck they won 101 games last year, dead srs.

All we can do is hope they win in spite of the owners bullsh*t, which everyone is rooting, but pointing to their record to argue they aren’t ass holes failing to give the Braves the best odds when it wouldn’t cost that much extra is not a counter argument fyi. Those are not mutually exclusive things.

If I put my life savings on red on a game of roulette I’m still a stupid mother f*cker even if it comes up red.

Braves-Orioles was a 10/10 series this weekend. The O's may have finally arrived. Best team the Braves have played so far.

[Zere0wn]

if the orioles were in the weak NL East they'd be giving the braves a run for their money for the division

[SoutheastBeast1]

Let's not get carried away.

The O's have only played 9 games in their own division at the moment, none of which even against the two best teams in the division yet (Rays and Jays).... You might want to see how they actually fair in their own division before spouting off some nonsense that it's holding them back and they'd give the Braves fits if they were in the NL East.

They've had 20 games against the Tigers, Royals, White Sox ,and Nationals to this point.

I came in here trying to give them props with the progress made, cause they have for sure. They're a solid team and put up a good series. Then we have this clown coming in here going full retard trying to throw shade at the Braves. Just lmao, go back to fantasy land and let the adults worry about real life baseball. You're not ready for that conversation yet.

it's not about their divsion, it's about how much weaker the NL East is. Braves are lucky to be in that weak division.

[SoutheastBeast1]

No they really are not. You’ve been completely warped by 1 month of baseball. The Mets and Phillies still have loads of talent in their roster.

Stop looking at 1 month of records. At the end of March everyone had pegged the NL East as the toughest division in baseball this year.

Lmao at trying to do a 180 1 month later and saying it’s the weakest. No, you’re just short sighted.

The Braves were like a .500 team after the month of April last year. Imagine the Mets thinking they had it on easy street…. Oh wait… they did make that mistake.

Go back to your fantasy chat. Like I said, you’re just exposing yourself being unable to talk real baseball.


Edit

Just checked the Phillies record last year too and both the Braves and Phillies were under .500 after April.

Look how that turned out. 3 teams in the playoffs and the NL representative in the World Series

Yeah…. The NL East is weak because it’s having another slow April lmao

no one who knows baseball thought the NL east was the strongest division

[SoutheastBeast1]

no one who knows baseball thought the NL east was the strongest division

Even if not the strongest, it sure as sh*t wasn't weak. I'm way closer with my assessment of it than you are with yours calling it weak.

Heres proof for you to try and absorb into that thick ass skull of yours.

https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/m...0of%20baseball.

Even within that where they're ranked second in the power rankings there's this piece

Arguably, the NL East is tougher at the top than the AL East.

But yeah Orioles would thrive here because it's weak after 1 month of baseball. Just admit you're a f*cking clown and move on. You say stupid sh*t in here you get called on it. Like I said, stick to the fantasy chat you guys have where it's a safe space for idiotic comments.

[SoutheastBeast1]

Oh by the way.... MLB had NL East projected as the best heading into 2023, granted this is mid December but still.

Tired of getting wrecked yet? You should be.


I guess "no one who knows baseball" includes Major League Baseball. Thankfully we have zereown here to keep it all straight for us lmao

i find it funny you think the MLB is a reliable projection system, the notoriously incompetence are now trustworthy

[SoutheastBeast1]

Than some jackass on a bodybuilding forum who two posts ago called the NL East a weak division? Yeah I think I'll even go with MLB on this one.

And I posted two sources here. MLB and CBS aren't the same entity. CBS didn't have them first but they certainly didn't call them weak. You keep digging a deeper hole now trying to pretend you know more about baseball than MLB itself. It's fun to mock the MLB's and the NFL's and the NBA's when they do stupid sh*t but the reality is they're in the business of knowing their sport and do it well enough to run billion dollar enterprises. Every league makes decisions that are easy to play Monday morning QB with and call them incompetent after the fact. The reality is they all operate extremely effectively. If deep down you actually think you know more and have better resources than these leagues it really does show how far your head really is up your own ass.

So yeah, MLB sh*ts on you in terms of being a reliable projection system you retard. Imagine thinking you know more than them. So notoriously incompetent that you just keep coming back to watch their product year after year.

I can't believe you're so gullible. Anyone with two eyes can see how much stronger the AL East is, why would you think the NL East is even in the same ballpark? I bet you like the blackouts too "muh mlb said ... "

[SoutheastBeast1]

What's wrong with Austin Riley?

He has done better this Rangers series but fuark his May has been desolate.

[SoutheastBeast1]

How much do you think Dodger fans hate Eddie Rosario lmao. Dude transforms into Barry Bonds against them.

[SoutheastBeast1]

What's wrong with Austin Riley?

He just needed some words of encouragement from yours truly

[SoutheastBeast1]

Mike Soroka returns tomorrow!

This is a guy everyone should be rooting to see make it back after everything he's had to deal with. Really could not come at a more needed time considering this rotation.
