@@richarddavis4928 sure but keep in mind what Acuña does for the offense alone. And - with all they’ve lost (Acuña, Strider, Harris, Murphy (early season), Albies, Matzek) … fundamental pieces… and yet they’re still qualified for the wildcard.
@@richarddavis4928 What does hitting .250 have to do with anything? Elly De La Cruz is hitting .259 this year, and he's been one of the best players in baseball this year. Same could be said about Francisco Lindor while hitting .256.
The Braves still in this thing don't give up fans remember 2021 we still in this race slow and steady win the race and just need make some trades player drive in runs
Yeah, who needs defense? -17 DRS, -9.0 UZR/150, and -15 OAA in just 929 innings. Rooker's defense is soo bad that even Oakland won't hardly let him touch the outfield any more, and they're a bad team. What does that tell you? Plus where does Rooker play in 2025? He's a waste of prospect capital if you have no place to play him in 2025.
Longtime 80’s A’s fan since the 80’s. Loved Rooker when he first came on board to Oakland as he’s been such a stud and special. Hate to see him go but hopefully he can make some good money and go thrive somewhere else and not be stuck over here with what we all got going on. And yes of course that goes for our youngster stud pitcher Mason Miller too. (BULLSH%T) HahA
@@RIDDYxMUSICH hopefully Baseball in Oakland figures itself out one day. I hate to see how it’s been handled by ownership. I know there’s great fans out there, and they don’t deserve this.
@@BravesOnDeck Yup no doubt. My dad especially is very saddened. Much love to the Braves. I was a huge Chipper Jones back in the day. Low key rooted for the Braves and still do.

The Braves need way too many pieces and the farm just doesn't all the prospects needed to supply the need neither to bring the necesary guys. They need to bring Pillar, Winker, Rooker , Bramdon Lowe, Erick Fedde and Mason Miller. Sadly it means Duvall, Laureano and/or Rosario would have to be DFA. All that while trying to keep Smith-Shawver ,Waldrep and Schwellenbach.
Let's not blame this office on injuries. The Braves weren't hitting before the injuries started happening.

@@BravesOnDeck Acuna was hitting 240-250 all year before his injury. Lots of strike outs and lack of hustle
@@richarddavis4928 don’t deny that; but it’s tough to get on a hot stretch when you continue to have injury after injury.

@@MassBoost well, you need to hit to score runs. That's just a dumb question. The whole team is hovering around 250 or below.

Braves could use both of them, depending on what it would cost.
Whatever AA is gonna do, I wish he'd hurry up...the Braves are starting to sink like the Titanic right now.

@@RIDDYxMUSICH we’ll be glad to include you in the fan base. I think all MLB fans have a soft spot for you guys.
I just hope that Braves will not be getting Mason Miller or breat rooker
The way the Braves are looking, they aren't going to make the playoffs. Hopefully they do and get hit.
Don't need Miller, need Rooker. Did you ever indicate how much Braves when need to give up to get him???

@@benjaminbennett8954 probably still a sizable chunk but not as much as Miller. Rooker has team control too.
NEED FREEMAN BACK
What sucks is that Acuña was starting to get hot right before he got injured
@@BRAHAMTTB I didn't see that.
@@richarddavis4928 wasn’t he 3-5 with a homer the day before he got injured?
