    Someone tweeted it but I’d be more willing to take a swing(lol) at Belli if it was any other team that dumped him.

    Perhaps a hot take, but all the energy spent trying to will Dale Murphy into the HOF should be spent on Crime Dog. Much better case.

    From The Athletic

    • And finally, here’s an example of how thoroughly some clubs dig into the trade and free-agent markets: The Braves, with Travis d’Arnaud, William Contreras and Manny Piña, possess one of the deepest catching corps in the majors. Yet according to major-league sources, they are one of the teams that has checked in on the Athletics’ coveted Sean Murphy — just in case.

    Why would the Braves want Murphy? First and foremost, he’s a good player. Equally important, he would give the Braves the depth to make other moves. Perhaps they could trade Contreras or d’Arnaud for a young shortstop, a young starting pitcher, a corner outfielder. Contreras is more a hitter than game-caller at this point. d’Arnaud has only one guaranteed year left on his contract, though the Braves hold an $8 million option on him for 2024.

    The chances of the Braves acquiring Murphy or completing any of the other moves mentioned above are slim. If they do anything involving a catcher, it likely will be a trade of Piña, in whom they are drawing interest. With Murphy, they’re simply investigating the possibility, and seeing what might happen.

    I’d push back on the “more hitter than game-caller” line. Bill took a clear step forward in that department this season.

    I want to say that was 70 mil for this year maybe? Basically one big piece and resigning all our smaller pieces. Chalked up Dansby as being gone already

    I think it was always a pipe dream for the Braves who would offer a high AAV but only for a year or 2

    Assuming Dans signs elsewhere, and if the Dads sign Turner or one of the other big FA SS, I wouldn't mind trading for Kim. He was a stud in SD this season.

    Trading Bill the year after Langeliers seems not great.

    TDA probably only has 2 good years left in him and now you have nothing to replace him without going to FA.

    I think Ian, Muller, JHM, and another pitcher could work. JHM becomes expendable if 3b and LF are locked down.
