Who breaks camp with the big league team and who breaks camp april 15? **cough cough** konnor griffin april 15 call up. - Ryboi808Which of the three big Japanese signings have the most pressure to succeed this year between Murakami, Okamoto, and Imai ?? - Marco__X:Building upon the Spring Breakout concept, there should be a “Summer Breakout” too. Thursday at the end of All-Star break. 15 primetime exhibition games at MLB ballparks before the leaguers return from break. Who says no? - Ely Sussman on XWith Schwellenbach on the 60 Day, who do you guys think the Braves could still sign / potentially trade for before the start of the season? Yes I’m aware they probably are gonna do neither. - EastADown7678 on XIG:As a Phillies fan.. how badly did we botch this offseason? Garcia instead of Bader... still had an excess to spend even after whiffing on Bichette and resigning JT.. I feel like we could have done so much more/higher quality moves.
