Outside of signing Valdez and drafting McGonigle, he has done absolutely nothing to improve the roster since he was hired. Quote

IdahoBert Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago This team is snake bit. If they’d had a 3-1 lead, Finnegan would’ve probably given up two runs in the bottom of the ninth anyway and we would’ve still lost in extra innings. Quote
Hongbit Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago How in the world did this bullpen get so insanely bad so quickly. Quote

Outside of signing Valdez and drafting McGonigle, he has done absolutely nothing to improve the roster since he was hired. I think he is liked because Avila was bad and because Harris is their first real analytical GM. I definitely like that they have moved in that direction. However, I am not sure whether he is a cooker cutter analytic GM or whether he will prove to be one of the good ones. Quote
Tigermojo Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Might want to just start trading guys who still have four limbs before the leprosy outbreak in the clubhouse. Quote

papalawrence Posted 52 minutes ago Posted 52 minutes ago (edited) I'm beyond frustrated and almost fully apathetic. But the injuries matter. As talented as Atlanta has been, they've missed the playoffs due to injuries. They're healthy now and maybe the best team in baseball. If reasonable healthy this is probably an 84 win team. It is snake bitten. The baseball gods are evening things out because they over performed the last 2 years Edited 51 minutes ago by papalawrence Quote
