Not good. Someone else in the org resigned too, but I can't find that tweet now.

Per Joel Sherman

This will not be a sad day in other front offices. Many execs had expressed to me displeasure in dealing with Coppolella’s #Braves

The Braves need a complete a tear down of the front office. Good riddance as far as I'm concerned. I'd be okay too if Snit was gone

From what I'm hearing we might be hammered hard by penalties. Kevin Maitan could be declared a free agent. Luckily we're pretty deep at middle infield with Dansby, Ozzie and Camargo.

What happens when a new GM wants to restructure this team his way and we have to start this miserable process all over again?

It might be a long time before we're contending again.

crapella did some good trades, but they most likely lose Maitain. That Acuna kid is going to be a stud and the Braves should be able to keep him. The young pitcher Gohara IMO is going to be the best out of all the young pitchers up so far. He has that wicked slider. That other left handed power pitcher just does not have command.

Crapella trade for Incarte and Swanson and Gohara was the best trades he did. I hated it when he traded Gattis to the Astros. Dumb move. Gattis always came up with clutch hits while with the braves and most of them were either moon shots or a line drive over the fence that would have to hurt somebody if they were not paying attention. Horrible trade. Trading that stud short stop was also a pinhead move. The Braves have a nice farm system, but ever since Turner sold the team they will not spend the money on premier Free agents, not even their own which is the main problem with the Braves.
