Title says it all. We’re so lucky to have AA.

Big thanks to Coppy for cheating.

Coppy laid the foundation for the '21 title team.
But AA is a fricking mob boss.

Big advantage when he had a open checkbook while Ted Turner was the owner.
Both AA and Coppolella had to work under far more financial constraints.

Liberty media was supposed to be the death of the Braves... good times.

This talking point has been debunked.

No it hasn't.
The Braves were almost always a top 5 payroll during their run in the 90's
MLB payrolls in the 90's
When was the last time they cracked the top 5 in the last 10 years?

This year(but to be fair they've been right on the outside of the top-5 the last couple of years)
Top 5 payrolls for 2024:
1.NYY-$302MIL
2.NYM-$291MIL
3.HOU-$247MIL
4.PHI-$238MIL
5.ATL-$231MIL

LOL
I said the last 10 and the weren't and they're also not on the top 5 this year.
Dodgers payroll $300 million in 2024

Dodgers payroll $300 million in 2024
quote:
ccording to Baseball Prospectus' estimate, the Dodgers are projected to have an Opening Day 26-player payroll just shy of $300 million. (For comparison, that leaves them more than $30 million short of the 2023 New York Mets. Their competitive balance tax payroll -- that is, the payroll that relies on annual average value and is used to determine luxury tax fees -- is projected to clear $300 million, however, putting them more than $70 million beyond the threshold.

You originally said this
And then I responded to your question with this link:
LINK
Which proves that the Braves are a top-5 payroll team this season. And that list is compiled by Spotrac, their entire website and mission is contracts, bonuses, payrolls, and finances in general, so they aren't just making this shite up dude. They know what they're doing.
Then you responded w/this:
Which this current season counts towards that 10, which they are in the top-5.
Yes, they are. Again, for your pleasure, here's the proof:
MLB Payrolls 2024
Now, either you didn't open that link and just have your mind made up that the Braves are cheap(they're not) b/c other people have told you that, which means you can't think for yourself and/or have an agenda, or you're just being intentionally obtuse/belligerent.
Just take your "L" here.
