A great point brought up in another thread. Another AA gift for Atkins.

Like you’re pointing out how the fans didn’t abandon when everyone unceremoniously left through poor asset management, but questioning if the fans would stick around through proper asset management...

Other than dosh though, those are stop top talents they are spending on.

The smart fans would still be here, and I believe it would be a net positive assuming the correct moves were made. We...

Hero unsure about an extension in Miami? He’s a guy I have always coveted. He’s the perfect 6man imo. The emergence of precious allows us to consider moving a starting piece for a good 6man. The...

They have so far. I guess we will see.

AA does it again.

“ Harris and the Braves agreed to an eight-year, $72 million contract late Tuesday night. The deal comes just two weeks after Atlanta and Austin Riley agreed on a 10-year, $212...

I don’t see any team making an offer that will bring more value than Simmons actually playing for the nets. Again, they have no picks. They need to try to field the best team they can, and retain...

Just want to elaborate on this a bit further to highlight the contrast.
In 2015 the Yankees were winning the division when they decided to blow it up. They looked at the talent on the team, and...

One of the biggest budgets in the league, roster laden with cheap all-star caliber bats and our ace (and closer) is on his rookie deal still… and we might miss the expanded WC…

It was unrealistic to think that atkins, a rookie GM without any history in the ALE, was the guy to lead us to the promise land. It was obvious in 2017 that he did not understand this division and...

We lost an MVP bat and Cy young winner from a non-playoff team… we needed upgrades not plugs.

Atkins been here longer than 5 years bro. AA started with a way worse situation, and had us as the best team in the league in 5 years.

I think they have to. No one will trade for Simmons.

They should. Whoever they trade for, that’s their team for the foreseeable future. No high draft picks for a while.

6 months younger with pretty much the same counting stats. They’re comparable. Gary also longer with pedigree. I’m just pointing that they should be a wash.

I think I would prefer Harris over Harper

Hopefully the orioles hire atkins to manage that window of opportunity.

I’m joking. It was just too easy.

I wonder what the feeling would be to play in the AL central lol.

Agree though only 1.5 games out from missing the wildcard right now. And when I look at the other teams around us in the WC...

I don’t think bane>>>GTJ. Disagree there. I’d say they’re comparable. Gary is also younger.

I know how good JJJ is, but just like brown, I’m not sure he’s a good fit with simmonds. Again,...

I think this is where most of us are with this team. They’re not terrible. They’ll probably make a WC spot. Terribly inconsistent, but it’s possible they get hot in the playoffs.

Yeah totally nailed it.

I think GTjr and OG fit nicely with Simmonds.

I agree, but what I’m saying is it’s not like a jump to Tatum and brown or Barnes and siakam. Still roll players.

I can see why they haven’t accepted the Brown offer from the Celtics though. I don’t see him as a great fit beside simmonds (defensively scary combo, but more scary than OG + simmonds defensively? ...

They could get an offer they cannot refuse at any point though. It’s just hard to imagine what that would look like. For example if Memphis decides they want to pair Durant with morant. They have...
