Re: 2018 Braves Games Thread....
Yeah, I'd hold onto Soroka and Allard. We'd still have 3 great pitching prospects in Kyle Wright, Luis Gohara, and Ian Anderson. I'd let them have their choice of 2 of them plus one prospect in the Fried/Touki/Muller/Pache range - I'll even include Wentz in there - Degroom is probably worth it.
The Nats traded for Kelvin Herrera - got him for 3 blah prospects. That makes their bullpen look REALLY good. I'd like to see the Braves add someone at or near that level to the pen to survive the dog days of summer.

Re: 2018 Braves Games Thread....
I would have to keep Wright as well as Soroka and Allard, like you mentioned. I could part with any of Anderson, Gohara, Fried, Touki, Muller, Wisler. Hell even Teheran.

Newcomb
Folty
Soroka
Allard
With Wright, Wentz and Stewart a few years away.

Geebus, Culberson risking his livelihood on that play. That's heart and guts.

Re: 2018 Braves Games Thread....
Amazing 9th inning so far, but TERRIBLE decision to send Freeman home with no outs and the score tied. The ball was hit to Baltimore's only good defensive OFer, throw cutoff by Schoop who has a great arm - Freeman out by a mile. Why... with no outs?! 3rd base coach didn't do his homework.
Edit: Great pick by Freeman to save a run in the 10th. Will walkoff Charlie get a shot to do his thing? Nah, Santana's in the game - and doing well. Can't say I understand having him run against a top throwing catcher with the top of the lineup up. Some poor base-running decisions by the Braves coaches.
Nick got a hold of one - unfortunately to dead CF - caught on the warning track. On to the 12th.
And Santana... just misses a walk-off homer with 2 outs in the 12th. On to the 13th.
In the 14th... with Nick on 3rd and 2 outs, Swanson hits a slow roller to 3d, Nick runs to the plate, third baseman one-hands the ball and throws... to 1st... Dansby out by a step. On to the 15th.
