Well again it is a mailbag Friday episode we got a lot of questions to get to and as always thank you so much for all your questions that you submit. I do respect and appreciate all of them. It was pointed out to me that maybe I haven't been as grateful for some of the questions that I've gotten and calling them things that I shouldn't but I do want to just emphasize I do respect everyone's opinion. I want that to be the main part of this podcast that I respect everybody's comment opinion question so if you haven't felt that way I apologize but I do respect and appreciate every question and comment that you send my way. Now let's jump into the questions again got 24 that were submitted for today and several of them have to do with Marcel Ozuna. First one from Dustin Mounts who says Saul reports that Ozuna has lost weight and is in great shape currently. The report also stated the Braves are considering trying him in the outfield again. What are your thoughts on this? So first of all I have not seen that report. There's another question earlier that makes reference to a video Mac McGuire says have you seen the video of Ozuna slimmed down do you think he plays more than 50 games in the outfield this year? And there's another one in here about Ozuna as well Kaden Hurd says what do you think of Ozuna's weight? Again I'm not seeing the video I did see a picture of him and he did look in good shape and and to be honest seeing the video of the report really isn't going to change my opinion on what I'm about to say. Do I think Marcel Ozuna plays in the outfield in 2025? Yes I do. We've talked about this a lot with Ronald Acuna coming back he's going to need times in the DH spot and to do that you're either have to bench Ronald or you're going to put him in the DH and I don't think you want to bench one of your best bats. So in order for that to happen you also don't want to bench Ozuna who has been one of your best bats for two years now. So in order for that to happen Ozuna almost has to play in the outfield some. Now the question from Mac McGuire do you think he plays more than 50 games in the outfield this year? I'd probably take the under on that. I would say he plays under 50 games in the outfield unless something just goes haywire. I don't know that you know him getting into the best shape ever or any of that has anything to do with it. Maybe the Braves have given him the initiative of hey can you get in good shape in case we need you in the outfield. It would not surprise me if that conversation has taken place. Do I think it's a good idea other than to get Acuna's bat in the lineup more as a DH? I don't really want to see Ozuna in the outfield again. Look if he's getting in great shape and he's slimming down and that's great maybe it makes him a little bit you know makes his movements in the outfield a little bit better can move a little bit quicker maybe. The guy hurts watching me watching him try to throw a baseball hurts me. The guy just can't throw a baseball. I don't think he's a good defensive outfielder anymore. As Josh Daniels just said getting in shape won't help his shoulder or arm strength and Ian that's one of the biggest issues for me. Can Acuna catch a fly or can Ozuna catch a fly yeah it's in his area he'll catch it but again it just it hurts me watching him try to throw and that's a liability out there. We saw it last time he was in the outfield everybody is running on him so again I don't I don't love the idea of Ozuna getting time in the outfield but I think it almost has to happen with Acuna coming back and Acuna needing time in the DH spot and not wanting to take Ozuna's bat out of the lineup. I think there are going to be times this year where you're going to have to need Ozuna in the outfield so I do think it happens given whether or not that's been something that the Braves have asked him to do to get in better shape to play in the outfield or that's just Ozuna's off-season workout. You know Ozuna always looks in pretty strong and in great shape maybe he has slimmed down a little bit but again I think you will have to see some Ozuna in the outfit this year. I'm not necessarily excited about it but I think it's it's just where the Braves are with Acuna coming back from another knee injury and needing to get off of his feet and wanting to keep both of those bats in the lineup somebody has to play in the field. William the Worst says everyone healthy who's your current roster opening day starting lineup? So I did a podcast about this a couple of weeks ago kind of predicting my opening day starting lineup you know maybe the question now is assuming that no moves are made I still think it's you know with Acuna not ready for opening day I think Michael Harris goes back to the leadoff spot followed by Ozzy followed by Riley followed by Olsen followed by Ozuna and then you have Sean Murphy behind the plate and then you have an outfield of Jared Kelnick and right now it's Eli White I think that at least will get replaced and then Orlando Arcee at shortstop so that would be my my lineup right now. You can't say everyone healthy because we already know Acuna is not going to be healthy but Sanz Acuna that's what I think the lineup would be right now. Destin Mount says since it was the A's having to overpay Severino to play in a minor league park for three years does this actually affect the free agent market or do players and teams realize that this is probably why he got so much since players like Walker Bueller have come out saying they won't play there? I do think the A's had to overpay Luis Severino in order to get him to come there just because of their situation I do think they probably had to overpay a little bit but it's not just the Severino deal I mean what the Mets gave for Frankie Montas and and others that we've seen this offseason that these prices have just been high but I do think that's part of why the A's had to to overpay for Severino so I do think that factors into it. Hayden Harris what is the one position move the Braves won't make that would be the most likely to cost them in 2025? I read this as what is the one move what position that they have to make a move for the most this offseason for me it's it's pretty easily starting pitching that's why I ranked it you know number one must-haves this offseason and it's crazy to say that because if everybody were to stay healthy in the rotation if Chris Sale is healthy and pitches like he did last year if if Renaldo Lopez is healthy if Spencer Strider comes back healthy if Spencer Schwellenbach stays healthy that's one of the best rotations in baseball even if you are acknowledging there could be some regression with those guys in the case of a Chris Sale and a Lopez and even a Schwellenbach in his second year I still think that'd be one of the best rotations in baseball you just can't count on that and to get through 162 you need depth in the rotation and to be able to keep those guys healthy for the end of the season where hopefully you're in a race for the division a race for the postseason you're going to need to give them some breaks throughout the year so I just don't think you can go into the season with just those four guys because after them there are some big question marks not just so guys that can fill out a rotation but guys that you feel like can pitch at the big league level whether it's a Bryce Elder and AJ Smith-Shaw or even an Ian Anderson at this point there's just a lot of questions behind them and so you do need to fill that out because that is one spot where if you don't get the depth there and something does happen Strider gets delayed or you know he's rusty coming back if if somebody else gets injured all of a sudden your starting rotation is a mess and it's hard to fix that on the fly especially towards the beginning part of the season so for me starting pitching is a spot where they have to make moves um double a double awx says would you do this trade why or why not white socks get nacho alvarez david mccabe hayden harris braves get louise robert i would do that trade all day long which is why i think the white socks probably laugh at that trade not that i'm laughing at your comment or your question but as a braves fan i do that trade every day of the week um it's just it's a no-brainer for me in my mind and it's a guy i like nacho um and i think david mccabe has some pop in his band i think hayden harris will be a big league reliever so i think those are some solid trade pieces but you're talking about getting a guy louise robert who if healthy which is certainly a big question mark is one of the best players in baseball so that's an easy trade for me from the braves point of view i got several more questions to get to on today's episode we'll get back into the questions here next you shouldn't have to worry when you're buying tickets to your next

your first listen of the day go check out locked on mlb for your second listen solely getting caught up with everything happening around major league baseball this offseason this will be the last episode for the week maybe as always offseason and with the winter meetings heating up i do plan we may have a lot of episodes last next week we may just have a typical four or five really just all depends on on what happens and how aggressive the braves are i'm expecting it to be a big week with a lot of moves across major league baseball just it depends on how after the braves are in that whether or not how many episodes we actually have but we'll at least have the typical four or five but it could be a much bigger week than that again depending on what happens with the braves and yes i am if you're watching on youtube i'm wearing a hat my hair is absolutely insane it's a mess my wife's begging me to go get a haircut and that will hopefully happen uh this weekend all right let's jump into the questions here getting back to these ts studios says or t studio says out of all the braves who's the most likely to be in a trade only major league players and who do you think they could bring back i don't know that i necessarily understand the the question here there's been a lot of talk about aussie albies i mentioned that on yesterday's episode why i think that's just kind of ridiculous i think the most likely player to be in a trade is jared kelnick um that might be kind of a cop out here but i think there were moves to be made and the braves are trying to make an upgrade somewhere that that maybe kelnick he wouldn't be a feature part of a trade but maybe you throw it in as a guy that's that's young controllable cheap that another team might think that they can fix and get going i'm not saying the brave should do that but out of all the players on the major league roster that i think are most likely to be traded i think jared kelnick's at the top of that list now who could they bring back in a trade for kelnick again i don't think he would be the main package in a deal and more so would just be a throw in so i don't know that you'd be getting anything significant back for moving jared kelnick but i don't think they trade anybody else i don't think they trade sean murphy or aussie albies which might be the two other guys that are maybe on your list of potential trade candidates but i don't think they do that and i don't think they should and i'm not saying i think they should trade kelnick i just think he would be the most likely if i had guessed big country with a a potentially planning to reset the tax and his documented desire to leave payroll room for add-ons at the deadline is it possible that the braves are done for the off-season no um even if he wanted to stay under the tax and even if he wanted to leave some room for payroll in the season there's still 15 to 20 million dollars that you can add to in this off-season and still have a little bit left over for in-season moves so no they're not done this off-season something will happen also from big country with the tax payroll in mind the braves have several extensions with escalating values would it would be interesting to discuss pros and cons of those versus steady values in regards to the tax that is a good conversation and maybe something we'll do for a full episode at some point but while these contract extensions have been great i think mostly great in my mind and being able to lock up these players and get get them done to team-friendly deals what it has done is it's hurt the braves in the tax payroll because again while michael harris might be making five million dollars and i'm just this is off the top of my head i don't have the numbers up his aav is 13 14 whatever it is again i don't have it in front of me but point being while a player might be making less money his aav is actually bigger because of the guaranteed money on this deal and that's making their their tax payroll higher it's why you see their tax payroll is so much higher than their actual team payroll because they have all these extensions in place which is driving up the average annual value of the contract which is what the luxury tax payroll looks to so again all these extensions have been fantastic because they've been team-friendly deals but it is also hurting them when it comes to the payroll so good question again might be a good topic for a full segment on the podcast at some point tom warfell do the braves go the trade route to add pitching since free agents seem to be getting deals exceeding salary predictions i think so and it's kind of what i talked about when i i laid out my plans for the off season i think a lot of it has to be through trades because of the prices and and a lot of this is if the braves are going to stay under the luxury tax threshold like just the the bottom i'm not talking about exceeding the the third threshold i'm talking about not going into the tax at all then there's only about 20 to 25 million left to spend before they hit the first tax threshold if they're going to stay under that it's almost seems impossible that they can do much this off season other than trades or just maybe a one small signing uh so again i think the trade route it certainly has to be the way and it typically is the way that alex is looking to make significant upgrades you don't typically see him make significant upgrades through free agency either way caden heard would you rather trade for louise robert and have him at least till 2026 or trade for kyle tucker for this year and potentially re-sign him so i i reached out to h town willhouse who's our locked on astros um podcast host because i've had a lot of people ask me about kyle tucker you know as a trade candidate i have not heard that the astros are shopping him maybe there in the off season maybe early last year when the astros were or down uh but h town said i have not heard of them shopping kyle tucker if they do that it means they sign bregman and hope to get framber at a discount the way i see it crane is still running things like we haven't lost every big name that's come up to re-sign except altuve so according to him he hasn't heard that the the astros are shop shopping kyle tucker it doesn't mean that they won't or at least won't listen i just don't know how available kyle tucker is um i think personally just looking at those two guys and i love louise robert and i've said this story i've told the story a lot i live in birmingham so i see the birmingham barons louise robert is one of the most impressive players i've ever seen come through birmingham just one of those guys you can look at and say that guy is a stud but he can't stay healthy and that is a huge issue for me and maybe that's a critical coming off the season that kyle tucker just had where like maybe he just had an ankle sprain turns out it was broken and missed a bunch of time but i think i feel more confident in kyle tucker so again it all depends on cost but i think i'd rather have the guy that i trust more in kyle tucker than louise robert even i think both guys could be studs and potentially you know all-star level players i do like that you have the the added year for louise robert i think i just have confidence in kyle tucker staying healthy and being that guy even though he is coming off in an injury field season seethan seethan says where are you going to be dropping for og fortnight i have no idea what that i mean i know fortnight's a video game i've never played it so i'll be dropping nowhere i'll be maybe going to the movie theaters this weekend with my family that's the that's the plans for the weekend i don't know fortnight's got something going on or not but if you are cc then he's apparently getting a group together john anderson which pitcher signing do you think is the domino that has to fall to start other signings burns or freed or someone else obviously soto is a big factor but thinking especially about starting pitching so i think and the path the article i referenced in yesterday's episode from espn with jeff pass and and buster only they seem to think as well that freed and burns are affected by soto so i think soto is the domino that a team that maybe is in on soto they turn that money in and go get a big pre-agent starter uh so i i think i think soto is the domino that needs to fall for some of these other signings to take place i think burns and freed are are kind of waiting on that um and i know that doesn't necessarily make sense because one's outfielder the other two are pitchers and so i get what you're saying and that there might be a difference but i think a lot of those same teams that are going after burns or they're going to be going after soto might also be going after burns or freed so i think soto is the domino that we're all waiting on for not just position players but pitchers too all right still have several more questions to get to hopefully we'll get to all of them today and my voice needs a little break so we'll be right back get into the action with nfl on fan duel america's number one sportsbook right now new customers can bet five dollars and if you win the fan duel sportsbook app gives you everything you need to

the offseason started because nothing has changed but with the winter meetings coming up and a lot of moves likely to happen including the one soto deal we may see these odds change here in the next couple of weeks for instance right now the mets have the sixth best odds to win the world series at plus 1200 but if they sign one soto how does that affect their odds so again you can check that out

a lot to get to and hopefully i do get to all of them um another one here from about kyle tucker this one from jacob what do you think of the braids maybe signing kyle tucker at least as a rental outfielder and what would the chances of extending him be if at all so said signing kyle tucker i think you mean trading and then extending kyle tucker again i just talked to to h town from locked on astros doesn't like they're shopping them uh so they have no real reason to move him i expect the astros to still want to be contenders in 2025 so i think the braids would have to overpay to get him even as a rental player uh maybe if the astros wanted a pitcher you throw in and would they take in aj smith-shalver and a you know another high level prospect in the braids system take a couple of pitchers in their system for kyle tucker as a rental player maybe and then can they extend them certainly alex has done a great job of that in the past i don't see why they couldn't um so again i don't think it's i don't think it's crazy to say that it could happen but i think the chances of it happening are very very slim paypal paypay 11 um almost gave out a paypal uh username there i don't know is aj mentor just gone at this point i hear a lot of chatter about bringing him back and i don't think he's going to command a deal higher than eight million a year with his injury history seems like a solid price range for a top setup guy we haven't heard a lot about aj mentor i think the reason is just because the uncertainty of his health status in ending the year spending most of the year injured ending the year injured i think a lot of teams are just curious where he is health-wise um i wouldn't pay eight million a year for aj mentor and i love the guy and he's been great i've talked about it before though i'm worried about aj mentor and his future going forward um so any team signing him they probably want to wait as long as possible to see how healthy he actually is but uh could he come back to the raves yeah i wouldn't do it for eight million you know if you could get him on a four year deal or maybe you do one of those deals like you did with a kirby yates and you get him on a two-year deal and you're paying for you four million in the first year and an eight million dollar second year with a two million dollar buyout something like that i could see the braids doing um but yeah i'm not i'm not running out to get aj mentor and i love aj mentor and he's been very good for the braves but his health status does worry me a good bit peterson do you think any do you think there are any free agents next year that the raves might be targeting that would no um just because i don't like it's one of those things that until it happens i'm never going to believe that it's going to happen just like the braves going to the luxury tax i never thought it would happen and here we are we've done it two years in a row but until i see alex anthopolis actually sign one of the top three agents i'm just never going to believe that it's going to happen so them getting under the tax i don't think it is like it was for the the dodgers two off seasons ago i don't think it was i don't think the braves doing it would be because they see somebody coming up in pre-agency the next off season that they just really want to throw a bunch of money at i just don't think that's alex anthopolis philosophy to throw a bunch of money on one guy right or wrong that's just had them in his philosophy so i don't see them getting under the tax to set up to sign a big pre-agent next off season not saying i don't think they wouldn't but it's you know kyle tucker vladimir guerrero jr those are boba shett i think those are three of the top names position player wise right now i didn't see any starting pitchers that really jumped out to me that gallon was one of the names that i saw koda singa could opt out of his deal and be available i definitely don't think alex would throw a bunch of money at a starting pitcher like that especially not one in their 30s but those are some of the names out there and some of those would be attractive like kyle tucker a boba shett would be very attractive to the braves i don't think them getting under the tax this year if they do that is necessarily because they have their eyes on somebody next off season that they want to sign um caleb hudgens a likes 10 to 15 million dollar for in-season moves there is no way in my opinion the brave state under the luxury tax let's say they're going to go over the tax two options here choose one sign willie adama 6 150 25 aav or sign freed 5 145 29 aav and sign paul de young to a one-year four million dollar deal i have no interest in in paul de young i'd much rather just roll with orlando rca for two million a year but if you're asking me willie adamas or max freed and the other part of signing willie adamas is also signing morton to a one-year eight million dollar deal morton takes one million eight million one year eight million that should have been done already um i really i think i want max freed again i like willie adamas i do but i think he's getting overpaid this offseason that deal for max compared to what we've already seen this offseason five years 145 i think i'd rather just do that uh of those two options but good question let me know you know what you think who would you rather what would you rather do go get willie adamas or go get max freed that's essentially the question in my mind which of those two would you rather have you could only do one jay smith says i know you believe we may be under the luxury tax really hope that's not the case because you can't add half the pieces with the available money needed in this market or without depleting the farm which would be a shame in this window the braves are in so not really a question there but just a thought i don't disagree with you um i think there's there's too many holes to fill and i did a podcast saying that it can be done that you can make the moves that you need to make and stay under the luxury tax but it would require you to trade you know a big part of the farm um so yeah i don't disagree with you i think it's really difficult for the braves to stay under the luxury tax and put a team together that gives them the best chance of getting to the postseason and winning um i do still think the team intact if they stay healthy if they produce like they can can still get to the postseason win a world series i i do believe that but i i agree with you that the of doing that it'd be hard to do that and stay under the luxury tax michael lee tunes with the way teams are throwing out big money deals these days and a not giving contracts more than 22 million a year do you see atlanta ever having another lifetime brave like we had in chipper out of acuna ozzy riley or mh2 who has the best chance i think i'd have to say riley because his deal goes well into his 30s i mean his deal may take him um and that's assuming he stays with the braves the entire time but i could see riley of those that you mentioned i think riley is the easy candidate i mean he's a he's a mississippi guy he's from the south he's already signed a big deal that takes him through his age 36 season i mean that might be riley's career and again that's assuming that the brave never trade him or anything um but yeah i think that could be riley and it should have been freddie freeman had he just made a simple phone call had his agent not messed him up it should have been freddie freeman and that to me still stings um but yes i i think it could be austin riley uh ecuador man hey jake with the skyrocketing prices for starting pitching what's the max you would pay for evaldi and if it's too much who would you who would be a backup option you would like to see um i don't really can't think of a backup option and free agency off the top of my mind i've already said the prediction of evaldi getting 22 million a year is already about the top the max that i would give him um and i like nathan evaldi i think he's good and maybe it's just it's it certainly is it's the market value for a guy but are you telling me you're going to pay him more than you're paying chris sale and again you can't really look at it that way because it's the free agent market where you know supply and demand and and the price is what the price is you know chris sale was done in an extension so you weren't competing against anybody but when you're competing against others it's going to drive up that price i would not want to go over more than 22 million for nathan evaldi but again i don't know how he doesn't considering what montas and severino have gotten i feel like he could get 24 25 million a year and that's just that's too much for me again 22 would even be really the max that i'd be comfortable giving a nathan evaldi a couple more questions i want to get to here apologize those are alive haven't been able to get to a lot of your questions or comments but appreciate you dan antlers what about a trade with the white socks for garrett crochet with atlanta sending ozzy ian anderson allen winans and lucas brawn to the south side bringing back merrifield on a one-year deal letting pete would notch over the second base job i don't think that deal works for the white socks first of all it's been reported that they want position players in return and you're only giving them ozzy who is only under control for three more years i believe um two or three or four more years i think uh and the white socks aren't going to be ready to compete in that time frame so ozzy doesn't really do anything for them so i don't think the white socks do that deal i would i don't want to give up ozzy but um you know i'm all for trading for garrett crochet certainly but i don't think the white socks would do that deal dr mjf jake any chance the braves maybe look to the japanese league for another starter there have to be some decent pitchers not named sasaki there are some others if you go look at it will be trade rumors top 50 free agents there's some names at the bottom of that list that are coming from japan i haven't done deep research on any of them but there are other names out there it's just it's not a market that the braves have really been aggressive in in the past and going after those guys and a lot of those guys want to stay on the west coast uh carlos paulino with the report that the cubs are looking to trade seiya suzuki how much of a fit is he for the braves despite the interest by the former on finding a left-handed outfielder who has two years he has two years left at 19 million each i like seiya suzuki i got him on excuse me upon a bunch of my fantasy teams last year um and he really performed well so i like him i think he's a really good hitter um so i i'd be more interested in him than i would be cody bellinger and there is so much talk about the braves going after cody bellinger and i just don't understand it other than he's a left-handed bat they can play the outfield and can back up first base but i think seiya suzuki is probably a better hitter at this point so i would certainly be interested in him i don't think that's going to happen but i would be interested uh in getting him if he is made available uh matthew says is joe eminez out for the whole season next year it's possible they're not ruling it out that he could be back in 2025 but it's certainly possible that he could be out for 2025 my worry with him and i don't really have time to get into all this because i've heard some people push back on what i think is directly commenting at me and saying that i think the brave should look to trade joe jimenez if it gives you some flexibility to make some moves for this year just because i don't want to put a lot of stock in a guy who might be back in 2025 and if he is back in 2025 it's going to be towards the end of the season and you're just counting on a guy to come back at the end of the season be good and ready to go straight from the start you throw him into a pennant race possibly into the postseason again i would need to know more the medicals and what it looks like but i would not go into this season saying i'm counting on joe jimenez coming back and being a setup guy that we need at the end of the year if it happens great but i would not be counting on that uh so that's kind of my take on on joe jimenez uh that's all i got time for today again thank you so much for all the
