It is very enjoyable to read your in-depth coverage on the Braves and specific players. I can't pretend to understand some of the brass' decision regarding some of the moves they have made and some of the trades, etc... but I totally fail to see keeping Tyler "No Power" Flowers. I thought it was just plain dumb to let K. Suzuki go, and keep Flowers, who doesn't seem to do ANYTHING WELL, except walk. Then we had to watch Suzuki cream the most important home run of the Nationals World Series in '19.

I know this may not be popular, but I don't at all see the worth of N. Markakis. He sat out the beginning of '20, then said he was sick of watching Braves players strike out, and proclaimed himself as "The Savior". God, that was so stupid. All we did was watch him hit an occasional single, and strike out as much as anybody else. Left runners on everywhere. Please somebody, tell him to take a hike and good luck finding anyone who wants this tremendously overrated singles hitter. He's got about as much power as Martha Stewart would have. Let Flowers go all ready and let Contreras, who seems a much better player than Flowers ever even dreamed of, get some real experience. That's my 2 cents, for whatever it is or isn't worth. No problem if folks disagree. Thanks again for the in-depth stuff. Bravo !!
