Ewok, I like Evan Gattis. I'll enjoy watching his power. We'll probably have four players hit 25 or more home runs this season. Maybe even three who hit 30 home runs or more this season: Springer, Gattis and Carter. The Braves got two of the Astros’ top-10 prospects — right-hander Mike Foltynewicz and third baseman Rio Ruiz— and right-hander Andrew Thurman.

Foltyneiwicz could be special in the future. He has a blazing fastball that can top 100 mph.
I always thought he'd be a future closer. The Astros just lost patience with his progression.

And Rio Ruiz is a young 20-year-old kid with major power. We drafted A.J. Reed in this past draft, who practically does the same things. We already have too many slugging first basemen, third basemen type players in the minor leagues. He could be a good power hitter for the Braves down the road. He's still three or four years away from reaching the big leagues.

Andrew Thurman is a future back-end starter. Nothing special but you may have something special in Mike Foltynewicz.

Braves designate Constanza for assignment.
This coming 2 years after austin petitioned for it.

Bases loaded 0 outs against Teheran up by 1..
Double play by Avilan, pop out by JJ..
That was scary, Avilan is either clutch as fuck or can't get an out.

I caught the end of the game after work. Man, getting out of that bases loaded jam with 0 outs was clutch. What a crazy offseason though... I gotta admit that Heyward looks great in that Cardinal red, as sad as I am to see it. Though, I'm really looking forward to seeing Shelby Miller pitch on Wednesday.

How have you been man? What do you think of the transactions this offseason? I don't think we'll be better than last year, but I'm hopeful that we won't lose 90 or more games
