Our Atlanta Braves are getting a glimpse into the future!

And thus far, it has not been pretty.  But how ’bout that Danny Burawa last night coming in throwing Kimbrels?  Yes it was only 1 outing but was a breath of fresh air in what has been an abysmal few months.

But don’t worry Braves fans, this season is almost at an end, and big changes are on the horizon!  We all know that the real goal is 2017, but I think the Braves are going to put out a pretty productive team come 2016, maybe even push for a 2nd Wildcard spot.  Let’s take a look at what’s on the books for 2016, play around with some math, talk about some trade candidates, and maybe shop a few free agents.  What say you? Great!  Let’s make ‘er happen!
