Should the Braves REALLY Go All-In? Braves Trade Deadline Mailbag | Atlanta Braves Podcast

Lindsay Crosby answers over 40 Braves mailbag questions focused on the trade deadline, defining what “all-in” really means and framing October success around getting 27 outs. He ranks potential starting pitcher targets in tiers, highlighting Tarik Skubal and Hunter Greene as franchise-altering options, with Sandy Alcantara, Reid Detmers, Casey Mize, and Jose Soriano among the next group. Crosby discusses opportunity cost, Atlanta’s preference for controllable players, and Alex Anthopoulos’ tendency to avoid “uncomfortable” deals and bidding wars, while suggesting a Chris Sale–style buy-low target like Lawrence Butler. He reviews sample trade proposals and predicts Atlanta will make an impact move to address starting pitching, likely costing a top-three prospect.
