I just saw on MLBTR that they’re looking for a DH.

Braves acquire Jarred Kelenic
Other teams could probably make some sort of tweak and make him better than he has been too. A team like the Dodgers.

Most starts over the past 3 years.

"Why does he have his own appreciation thread?"

Yeah you can't read into every single Tweet out there.

I could see them wanting to hold onto Kjerstad and instead wanting to move one of the 1-2 year control guys (Mullins, Santander, Hays) for prospects.

Yes. Very annoying indeed.

I agree. Who knows though, AA is an aggressive GM.

It's only the LHH part of it.
-

Right. They're not trading for immediate need.
-

I kinda figured they were going to look to add a lefty to the Ozuna, Grisson (both righties) mix in LF.

It's only just past 11:15am. Give it longer than half a day haha

If they had gotten Kelenic from the M's, then they would just worry about trading for the best packages, without excluding positions. Opens up for more possibilities rather than saying "we need this guy because he plays OF."
-
Braves acquire Jarred Kelenic
Is it because he has an appreciation thread here with only 1.169 service time to his name?
-

But that's not actually eating money. International slot money is more "potential to spend." Not actual cash.

If we don't end up with the top pick or 2, I hope we pick outside of the top 6. Next season is going to be baaaaad. Worse than last season.

You seem pretty confident Eloy is going. Are you hearing they just don't like him or something and are willing to sell low rather than hold him and see if he can improve his value?
-
Braves acquire Jarred Kelenic
They SHOULD be. But we know they don't like taking back bad money.
-
Braves acquire Jarred Kelenic
All good. But yes, I agree. Marco is a fine back end addition for the Braves.

I was specifically talking about Evan White, who’s owed $15M over the next 2 years (plus buyouts) and hasn’t even appeared in the MLB since 2021.
-
Braves acquire Jarred Kelenic
Jerry wouldn’t eat the money on Evan White.
-
Braves acquire Jarred Kelenic
We’re probably going to pay about that for a filler. And for the Braves, they could just be stockpiling arms like the Dodgers and move him to the pen.

The Braves oldest OF'r is Acuna at 26. Wow.

Brewers, Jackson Chourio agree to 8-year, $82M deal
I just correcting the "big league" part as that refers to MLB when used.
