The value they have on Arcia is insane. Top 5 defensive shortstop yet getting paid like a bottom 5. He is the only one on this team that showed fire and passion this season, I will not be happy if they trade him away. For me he is the only reason I watched some of these games because he looks like he actually cares. As a fan that spends thousands every season to support this team I like to see a guy who cares.
@@brandonedwards4517 yes , I stand corrected , he is a CAA Sports client, but don't forget that Gregg Maddux, Andruw Jones, among other former braves players were also Boras clients. At the end everything comes down to what the player wants as I did say in the comment. But I agree the focus should be on pitching before turning to the offence.
I like Arcia just as much as the next Braves fan However, Adames is an established star and would be an upgrade from Orlando IF you can make a deal to get him-You do it ATL has a pair of top prospects who are shortstops in Nacho Alverez and Jose Perdomo Though I could be wrong, Nacho could be better suited at 2nd Base and Perdomo's ETA isn't until 2028 or '29 If AA can't make it happen, then so be it and move onto higher priorities- Which is the pitching staff I expect Morton and Chavez to retire From what I read in an AJC article, Minter wants to stay in ATL. His injuries could bring down his asking price. Though I'd keep an eye on both Texas teams. Still 50/50 on what Max does. I think it's going to Atlanta or California for him. As far as the rotation goes: Strider, Sale, Lopez and Schwellenbach will be back Though I wouldn't surprised if they sign a veteran to a 1yr deal. Shane Bieber possibly? They have a handful of young arms to choose from You can never rule out AA making a trade. Crochet anyone? The Bullpen: CL-Iglesias. They need to consider adding a couple yrs to his contract Minter-I think he stays Joe Jimenez Pierce Johnson Dylan Lee Aaron Bummer has a club option. He's been pretty good but is he worth $7M? Daysbel Hernandez-Can't keep sending him up and down Grant Holmes-Wait and see Angel Perdomo and Ray Kerr could be options Have to ask this: Depending what the Braves decide on the rotation, could Lopez take Chavez's role as the long relief/spot starter?
You're forgetting a really important statistic. Willy Adames as of September 21st, 2024 has 39 more runs scored than Orlando Arcia. Which is the stat that does jumps off the page.
I'd say use that $ to go grab another starter and bullpen arm. Don't think uncle Charlie is coming back, neither Jessie. Orlando has an off year at the plate and some are trying toss him to the wolves. MSMH.

Adames BIG upgrade over Arcia.
Tired of seeing non competitive at bats from Orlando
I wonder if Milwaukee will trade us William Contreras for Sean Murphy
@@jasonjenkins8910 🤣 not in a million years even if the braves pay for Murphys contract.
I hope not
@@jeffreyhumphries-jw2fo they are not that far apart defensively , but Contreras is years light away with the bat.
Who in our farm system would you think could help for nxt season ‘ instead of 🆓 agents ! Let’s Go Bravos 💯
Yea, I keep looking around for another SS and can’t find anyone to justify upgrading over Arcia.
I don't think AA will fall to Boras nor will Boras fall to AA unless Adames really wants to be a Brave.
Though I agree w/ you on AA not wanting to negotiate with Boras and his clients
I'm pretty sure Adames agent is CAA Sports not Scott Boras

Long time no see Tyler.

Yes

Does it make it worth $100+ million to pay him? I'd venture to say no.
Adames has 270 Total Bases and Arcia has 189.
I am happy with Arcia, I'd extend him as a matter of fact.
You are quite literally special needs😭
No. Keep Arica and send on pitching
I'd say use that $ to go grab another starter and bullpen arm. Don't think uncle Charlie is coming back, neither Jessie. Orlando has an off year at the plate and some are trying toss him to the wolves. MSMH.
Arcia has to go. I would take willy. We need more depth in line up.
