I thought it was very disappointing the lack of activity by the Braves in the offseason. I figured they would do something to help the pitching staff and relievers. I think the Braves will go 86-76 and finish 3rd in the NL East and not make the Playoffs.

We got a lot of our wins last year by owning division games (49-27). That isn't happening this year as the rosters are currently constructed. I see something more along the lines of 77-85

I think if the Braves don't make the Playoffs Brian Snitker will be fired as Braves Manager. I would love to see him replaced by former Yankees Manager Joe Girardi.

I agree, braves will be lucky to finish .500 after getting all those wins last years against our dumpster fire division. We knew the Phillies and Nate are organizations serious about winning. Listening to AA is kinda like listening to Don Waddell, the former GM of the Thrashers. A fan once asked him in a season ticket meeting why they don't spend more, he said: "I like employment."

They can say all they want, but the organization has its desired margins set regardless if it's done by Liberty or in-house.
