dmite Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 4 hours ago, Unknøwn said: Liberty released quarterly reports. Braves had $216M in revenue for the quarter. That came out to be a $54M profit for the organization. DOB had suggested these reports were what the Braves were waiting on to sign Freeman. This quarter in 2020 was a $26M loss because of the delayed season. So the team has made that money back at least. Attendance has been great. While I miss Turner field, it was the right move to get closer to their fans. I still haven’t been to Truist Park yet, maybe next year.

Some times he goes by the gut but I believe he wants to change hes just so old school and thats all he's known. It really is a BIG ask for a 65-year-old man. I mean, Moneyball is just 18 years old and really didn't make headway in baseball until a few years later. So, he was already in his 50s at the time.

It's all the shopping, restaurants and hotels around the stadium that the Braves own that generates revenue too. That was never an option at The Ted.

Other than the poor lighting, Turner Field was a much better ballpark. That’s fact and everyone knows it. Such a mistake that something like the Battery couldn’t happen there, not to mention the idiots that failed to run a Marta spur directly to the area.

Anything less than a sweep is a disappointment here. At home against a team that has mailed it in. And a hated rival at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats nearly 30 points below his career mark. He hits .287/.337 in his 42 games from #3.

To me that makes them a dangerous team and 2 of 3 is ideal . Win the first 2 games and rest some starters in game 3 for the next series.
