I can honestly say I didn't think the Braves would sweep any team this year. Let alone the Mets and on the road. Teheran was dealing today too.

Playing some good ball lately


5 game winning streak

Championship!

Make that 6! The longest current winning streak in the league.

Glad to see Bud Norris go. He was pitching better but it won't last.

We own the Marlins

Nice walk off win yesterday! Teheran was lights out!

Hey Val...Dansby Swanson for Santiago Casilla. Make it happen.

Ill counter with Vizcaino for Bickford straight up, but you can have lunch with Coonrod.

The Coonrod part shouldve given away the joke..

Looking ahead to next season, If he doesnt get traded by the deadline this year Id like the Braves to make a run at Longoria in the offseason, dude has a decent contract for the rest of his career, runs through his age 37 season and we have a crap load of prospects to trade from,the young Kid Maitan is only 16 and the future 3B but is obviously a few years away. Sign Matt Wieters to play C

Possible lineup

LF Inciarte
SS Swanson
1B Freeman
3B Longoria
RF Markakis
C Wieters
2B Albies
CF Smith

Smith, Inciarte and Albies are all leadoff options but id start the year with the more experienced guy in Inciarte

Looks good to me. I'm ready. This season has already seemed like forever with all the loses.

Why would a rebuilding team like Atlanta want to trade away prospects for a 30 year old 3B?
