Braves

[cbrunt29]

It's rumored that they're talks of sending Justin Upton to Padres. Any chance Renfroe could be playing in Atlanta soon?

[msstate7]

I really wish it was will Myers. Doubtful, but hopeful. Tyson Ross is my favorite player in trade with Padres though

Done deal - Renfroe is a Brave!

baseball source: Max Fried is in Upton deal to #Braves. Hunter Renfroe and Matt Wisler ARE NOT. #Padres

I hope this is wrong, would love Renfroe in a Braves uniform

No Renfroe if this IS the deal

Padres better rip on offense if Myers, jup, and kemp are their outfield. Poor defense...

Lots of OF to cover in that division.. Huge areas of grass in the NL West.

lhp max fried, ss jace peterson, 3b dustin peterson, of mallex smith going to braves for justin upon and low-level player

So we give up one of the best lf for a bunch of guys I have never heard of. Couldn't they at least take BJ also.

[VandelayIndustries]

Well to be fair the Padres are probably only going to get JUP for one year, that's probably why the Braves didn't get some of their top prospects.

Fried was top 50 prospect before TJ. Smith stole 80 bases in low minors. Not sure bout others.

If fried bounces back from TJ, this could be good move. Jup is a 1-year rental.

I hope the Braves sign aoki to play LF

Or he has another TJ and they release him.

I would be happy if they were able to unload BJ somehow.

Can't see that happening. Hopefully bj bounces back now that jup is gone. Sibling rivalry and junk... #reaching

[starkvegasdawg]

Oh well. Thought there for a minute I might have a reason to watch the Braves again next year.

Is it just me or do the Braves remind at least a little of our basketball team? Under the old management they went to the playoffs every year but never really made much noise save for one season. Then he leaves and a new coach comes in and the team sucks so bad their mascot should be a Dyson vacuum cleaner.

[dawgs]

Braves would have to eat a lot of bj's contract to get anyone to take him.

I actually think there may be something to that. Not necessarily sibling rivalry but maybe a "buddy buddy comfort zone" that led to some effort lacking in certain areas. I think some of the moves have reflected that. Look who's staying and look who's going, or who they are at least trying to get rid of.

[Tbonewannabe]

So right now what is the lineup look like? Gattis in lf, Freddie at 1st, Bethan behind plate, CJ still at 3rd, new guy in right, BJ in CF, Simba at SS
