In this episode of Road to Atlanta, Matt and Eric start off by voicing our deep displeasure with the state of the negotiations regarding the fate of the 2020 baseball season. Rob Manfred is essentially trying to extort legal guarantees that no sane human would agree to under normal circumstances and, well, we don't like it. We also miss baseball. After those rants, we turn our attention to the 2020 Draft which wrapped up last week and we break down each of the new Braves including Jared Shuster, Jesse Franklin, Spencer Strider, Bryce Elder, as well as the undrafted free agents the Braves have signed so far. It was fun to talk about actual baseball things and less fun to talk about the exceedingly rich trying to get exceedingly richer. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
In this episode of Road to Atlanta, Matt and Eric, just an hour after the pick or so, sit down to talk about what we know and think of the Braves' newest draft pick, Jared Shuster, as well as try to make sense of how the first round unfolded. We talk draft strategy, names of guys that we thought were also in play at the 25th pick, and some thoughts on what we think could happen with the Braves' picks on day two. Enjoy!

In this episode of Road to Atlanta, Matt and Eric turn their attentions away from the current state of the Braves' minor league system and towards the upcoming MLB Draft. This draft is going to be a weird one with drastic reduction in the number of rounds and is poised to be an outlier in baseball history, so the goings-on are going to be fascinating to see unfold. We go over some of the changes to the draft format, talk about the potential consequences of those changes, and share our thoughts on who the Braves could be taking both in the first round as well as in later rounds...or at least who we would like to see picked.

In this episode, the show returns after a long hiatus. We were wanting to do a show that previewed each minor league roster leading up to the season, but sadly Mother Nature had other plans and we haven’t had much to talk about on the minor league side. However, things have changed and Matt and Eric got together to talk about the state of minor league baseball, or lack thereof, in 2020, the Braves’ decision to extend payment to minor leaguers for the month of June, the team’s subsequent decision to then cut a whole bunch of minor leaguers, what we see happening going forward.

This week we dive deep into some listener questions, and the subject of draft strategy was of particular interest. Whether a review of prior drafting tactics, recent draftees, or future targets the discussion was quite interesting as Eric, Matt and Garrett host the day.

We are BACK, welcome to the return of the Road To Atlanta podcast. We had to go a man down with Gaurav out this week, but our fearless host Eric Cole rallied the troops and Matt and Garrett joined him for a discussion of the minor leagues. With the recent Rule 5 draft there was plenty of things to talk about, with 40 man roster additions and a couple of minor league selections going down for the Braves. We also said goodbye to a few long time Braves prospects who may be leaving us in free agency and where they may find themselves in the coming season. The biggest news in the minor league circuit was the proposed contraction of 42 minor league teams, and we had a lengthy discussion about our concerns, minor league salaries, and the impact this could have on minor leagues players for the future.

After more than a week of relative silence from the Atlanta Braves, the Talking Chop Podcast came together for a nice, quiet mailbag episode on Sunday. Within 24 hours, chaos returned and, on Wednesday, the Braves made another big splash in committing an eight-figure salary to Cole Hamels for the 2020 season. With that as the backdrop, Episode 199 is here
Breaking down the decision to sign Hamels to a lucrative, but short contract
How does the veteran left-hander compare to other options and what can fans expect for 2020?
What about the payroll now? What happens to Josh Donaldson?
Catching up on Atlanta’s non-tender and release decisions from Monday, headlined by the choice to part ways with Charlie Culberson

In this week’s episode, with Gaurav and Garrett unavailable, Matt and Eric have to go it alone to mourn the end of the minor league season together.

Spoilers: Michael Harris, Greg Cullen, and Bryce Ball featured prominently in that discussion. After that, everyone talked about their initial impressions of the Braves' representatives in the Arizona Fall League coming up this fall which includes some outfield prospects we are continually intrigued by. After that, we take lots of listener questions from topics such as the future of right field in Atlanta, Nolan Kingham's ceiling, and how the performance of some of the guys in the lower levels of the minors effects the tradeability of guys like Drew Waters and Cristian Pache (it doesn't).

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we start off by welcoming Gaurav back into the fold (fear not, Garrett will be back soon as well) and first talk about the recent promotions of Bryce Ball and Michael Harris to Rome. In short, Ball's promotion was overdue and Harris' promotion was a pleasant surprise although we aren't expecting huge things this year (his time will come). After that, Matt talks about his recent trips to see Gwinnett in action to see how Ian Anderson, Tucker Davidson, Cristian Pache, and Drew Waters are looking in Triple-A. We then answered listener questions about the Braves' current shortstop problem, the depth of the minor league system in the coming years, Freddy Tarnok's development, and what we expect for the Braves' outfield in the near future.

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we had a shorter episode than usual as we had Matt on location watching a minor league game and we didn't want to tempt the audio/connection gods too much (apologies in advance if the audio isn't quite as good as usual). First things first, our own Garrett Spain re-joined the podcast to give us a hand (he is going to be back on frequently in the future) to talk some prospects. The big news of the week we discussed was the promotions of several of the Braves' top prospects including Cristian Pache, Drew Waters, Ian Anderson, and Tucker Davidson. After that, we talked a bit about some of the Braves minor leaguers who have been among the top performers recently. Enjoy! We promise next week will be a longer episode.

We are more excited about some of those performances than others.

From discussing our unanimous top prospect Cristian Pache and how he had separated himself from the pack to discussing why some guys (looking at you, Luiz Gohara) didn't make the list at all, Matt and Eric go in depth into how the list was formulated, some of the harder calls that had to be made, and whether or not there were any surprises once we actually got the list finalized. We also took a few questions from folks over on Twitter to answer to make sure we didn't forget anything super important. Thanks again to everyone for reading the site this week and enjoy!

Fortunately, Scott was able to join me to cover a whole lot of ground in Brad's absence.

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we first look at the Futures Game selections for the Braves. The virtues of Ian Anderson and Cristian Pache are talked about quite a bit as well as cases made for Drew Waters and Kyle Muller because, well, we are greedy and would have loved to see some more Braves. Then, we talk about the status of some injured prospects including Freddy Tarnok, Tristan Beck, Corbin Clouse, CJ Alexander, and Victor Vodnik while mourning the retirement of all-around good dude Derian Cruz. After all of that, each of us talk about a couple of guys that are trending up on our personal rankings as well as some that are trending downward as a little bit of a teaser for our Top 30 Braves Prospects List that will be rolling out on Talking Chop during the All-Star break.

We then discuss the draft signings overall as well as the guys who have not signed yet before we get into the meat of the episode which was discussing the guys we have missed the most on.

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we take a step back and take some listener questions as we wait for short-season ball to get fully underway. We discussed plenty of the Braves top prospects including what the near-term futures are for Drew Waters and Cristian Pache, how the 2018 draft class is doing, updating our outlook on Kolby Allard, and discussing some guys whose outlook has diminished this season (if only temporarily). After that, there were a LOT of questions pertaining to the 2019 draft class and the short-season ball rosters including guys we have our eyes on, who we think could have the longest MLB career, and lots of stuff in-between.

This thought exercise helps us get a good handle on the top prospects in the system before we start incorporating the 2019 draftees into the mix ahead of our Top 30 Braves prospects list which will be coming out during the MLB All-Star break.

In this week's episode, we touch quickly on the recent promotions of William Contreras and Greyson Jenista to Double-A which look a bit puzzling on the face of it but make a certain amount of sense in others. After that, it is all draft talk as we talk first in generalities about what we thought about the draft which wasn't exactly a glowing endorsement, but we at least understood the strategy (we think) and there are some definite benefits. After that, we look at the picks themselves from the high profile ones in Shea Langeliers and Braden Shewmake as well as the day two and three picks that could really make some noise for the Braves in the future.

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, Matt and Eric first take a look at some of the top performers in the Braves' farm system including the usual names like Trey Harris and Cristian Pache as well as giving some deserved air time to guys like Tucker Davidson who have been playing well and who might not see the limelight as much as they should. After that and some injury updates, we take our final dive before the draft where we talk about the most likely candidates to be taken with the 9th overall pick (well, the most likely at THIS moment in time anyways), who we like and don't like, and then we talk about some names for later on in the draft.

After that we talk about specific guys who are trending up and down including Hunter Bishop, Josh Jung, Daniel Espino, and others as we all try to make sense of what is going to go down in a couple of weeks. As an added bonus, Matt shows his love for Daniel Espino in his feud with Carlos while Gaurav and Carlos feud over characterizations from The Office....so basically it was just like old times. Enjoy!

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we had a really special guest. First, the three of us give you the usual update as to what is going on in the farm system with some of the top performers from the last week or so. Brace yourselves...there is a good bit of Austin Riley in the first segment as well as tidbits on members of the Mississippi rotation, Drew Waters and Cristian Pache, and Trey Harris who has been absolutely raking for Rome. After that, we were fortunate enough to be able to bring Jim Callis from MLB Pipeline on to the show despite his busy schedule (and my pestering him constantly....sorry Jim). Jim talks to us a bit about some of the big position player prospects in the Braves system, gives a ton of insight into the state of power numbers in the minors (in particular in Triple-A) due to the baseballs being used, and then takes a dive with us into what we can expect to see from the 2019 MLB Draft from the Braves at least as an early glance. Jim was an absolute joy to record with and gave us a ton of insight. Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we first do a quick recap of what we have seen in the minor leagues over the last couple of weeks including some newsworthy promotions, injuries, and top performances including Austin Riley smashing baseballs into orbit, a dark horse pitching prospect playing out of his mind, and more. After that, we were joined by Baseball America's Ben Badler to update us on the state of the Braves and the international free agent market. We get a lot of questions about the players the Braves lost, what the Braves are currently doing to rebuild their international operations, etc. Ben covers all of that in more in a deep dive of an interview that you won't want to miss. While you are at it, please make sure to subscribe to Baseball America. We love that whole team of folks over there and it is an incredible value for the service and information they provide.

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we cover an array of topics. First, we took at look at some of the top performers from down in the minor leagues including top prospects like Drew Waters and Cristian Pache as well as lesser known guys like Riley Delgado, Justin Dean, Trey Harris, and Rafael Ortega (with a minor tangent about the baseball being used in Triple-A). Then, we discuss how the Braves are currently managing pitchers' innings thus far in the 2019 season and we wrap things up with finishing up mailbag questions from last week and making some predictions for the weekend since we recorded this episode on Friday and needed to switch time slots with the Talking Chop podcast (which you should go listen to immediately if you have done so already.
