Not in the position they were in. He's a guy you need competing and if the team isn't while they're also in the middle of multiple clubhouse crisis', it's not worth having him in that environment.

You are missing out on Acuna, after watching him torch mobile in the 5 game set i told all my buddies who were braves fans that he is their 2nd best player in the whole org behind Freeman
Taylor Ward

I know a lot of people who would support you on that comment. It's rave after rave on this kid.

Why would the Twins pass up on a potential transcendent player like Hunter Greene
Taylor Ward
9:09
Money? I know that's the excuse but... it's a poor excuse. They should have taken Hunter Greene
Vincent Page

You get one prospect from each division to build your system, who do you take?
Taylor Ward
9:11
Brendan Rodgers, Kyle Tucker, Yoan Moncada, Hunter Greene, Vlad Jr., Kolby Allard

Hey Taylor. Do you find it more beneficial to stay under the 3 million dollar cap to sign intl. players every year or go after a high price guys and be in penalty every 3 years? It seems as some teams have varying philosophies.
Taylor Ward
9:12
All depends on the talent. If you are dead set that a guy is going to be the next Adrian Beltre, I'm spending every nickle and dime I have.

Also, think the Braves rushed Dansby Swanson? Seemed merely ok last season and just got sent down
Taylor Ward
9:14
I do. Swanson really needed the offensive reps to help some issues with his hip drive and weight transfer. He's talented, and there's no denying that, but I hope the damage isn't already done. Doubt it is, kid's a gamer and student, but, just concerned.

Where do you rank Simba among MLB shortstops? In terms of this season
Taylor Ward
9:16
Probably somewhere in the 3-5 range. Carlos Correa and Corey Seager are ahead, and he's in the Cozart, Segura, Lindor range for me this year
Nick

Prediction: the Angels farm system is better or worse on Tuesday?
Taylor Ward
9:17
Near the same. Nothing major brought in and nothing major taken out
Lucas

Care to make a fun 2018 Angels starting lineup/rotation/key bullpen pieces prediction based on pure speculation?
Taylor Ward
9:19
I really don't try and speculate especially with the Angels where they are. I'll give you my idea of the lineup: C Maldonado, 1B Valbuena, 2B Cowart, SS Simmons, 3B Free Agent, LF Free Agent, CF Trout, RF Calhoun
Corbin
9:19
what system do you see getting the biggest boost by the deadline this next week
Taylor Ward
9:20
Oakland. Sonny Gray is going to bring in a nice return
