It would have to be a full on collapse where they just miss the playoffs which i don’t think happens. Girardi got the start of 2022 and he really didn’t deserve it with how they looked during 2020 and how the 2021 season ended.
August 1, 20242 yr If he continues this into start of next year there’s a chance he could be called up later in the season in 2025

There's your starting CF and hopefully front line starter for the next several years. We've all seen this before though on prospects so not gonna hold my breath.

I'm not a big Kingery fan and I thought that contract Klentak gave him was dumb from day 1, but damn, give this guy a chance. Maybe he can be your right-handed bench guy that is actually better than Merrifield or Pache (won't be hard). It would be nice if someone from the esteemed Philly media actually asks DD or Thomson why he never gets a call up. Maybe he comes up and sucks, who knows, but try something different.

I mentioned that last year. Before they traded for Castro. And then even after they traded for Castro. I said kingery has shown more in his major league career than Castro did. You had him sitting in your minor league and you were paying him anyways. So why not give him a chance you’re even if he fails you could’ve figured that out. And then traded for Castro who sucked anyways. The fact of the matter that he hasn’t got a shot again is a little ridiculous to me. They’re giving guys in the minor leagues that have no business at the major legal level a chance to play. At least I could stay at some point in time Scott Kingery was actually a decent major league player. No offense to West Wilson or allarf neither one of those guys should be on a major league roster. They’re AAA players and we’re never want a highly coveted prospect. Kingerry was at least that at one point in time and he had some major league success for a season or two. like why not. We lose Rodolfo Castro or Nick Nelson from the 40 man isn’t going to kill us. And sending Wilson down isn’t going to kill us either.
August 1, 20242 yr This is why you don’t trade for him. Love the talent but at this stage of his career he’s going to be 33 in 6 days, owed a lot of money and can’t stay healthy

I’m guessing the Braves go 6-3

So Klentak not only decided to give a 6-year contract to an unproven prospect, THEN he adds 3 team option years on to it? Like seriously, I'm stumped. It's no wonder he still hasn't gotten another GM job.

It's no wonder he still hasn't gotten another GM job. If i remember correctly he’s working in the brewers front office. But yeah the 3 club options might have worked if kingery wasn’t bad after 2019
