NWINFan Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Good signing. Leury is a good man to have around. Of course, the team needs something more dramatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Leury is the only guy who can play all over the field and look bad except SS. Cannot believe we were able to sign him. There could have been a bidding war like Machado. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polar Bear Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Horrible, borderline horrific signing. He is just barely a serviceable bench guy let alone a a starter (which this makes him). Just horrible that they sign Leury to be the starter at 2B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zisk Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 might mean they're going with the kids at 2B and RF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Males me nervous that he was brought back in as a hedge against failure to acquire other players. Like, are they going to allow failure?

One can say the timing of it doesn’t matter, but they don’t appear to be prioritizing more important things.

Just horrible that they sign Leury to be the starter at 2B If you think he’s barely a serviceable bench guy, your standards might be a little too high for bench players. Also, where are you seeing that he’s the starter at 2B? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just horrible that they sign Leury to be the starter at 2B You are not familiar with a lot of rosters then, because there are a lot worse players than Leury Garcia pulling down paychecks in MLB. With 750 roster slots out there, there is a ton of mediocrity and worse getting MLB jobs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 lol, this is really nice of Arcia, but this seems so annoying. Is it like a checkbox on the contract? Do the braves, right before you sign, ask "would you like to donate 1% of your contract to our charity?" and stare at you the whole time? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
