We’ve had to chase down bats the last few trade deadlines. I think with the expanded playoffs, it’s getting harder and harder to make acquisitions and to make trades because that extra playoff team has added another layer of teams that are contending and that and that don’t want to sell. So the number of sellers have diminished greatly and you know, finding bats in the outfield, every deadline has been really challenging. So, we’d rather be just a little bit overstocked to go into a year. 

ALEX ANTHOPOULOS

ATLANTA – The trade deadline has passed and it’s time for our Baseball Man, Chris Dimino, to catch up with the best GM in all of baseball, Alex Anthopoulos. He’ll reveal what his plan for the team is for the rest of the season, why pitching is what will take you far in the postseason, his belief in the offense, dealing with adversity this season, and MORE!

Fire it up, Braves fans!
