    Atlanta Braves Top 4 Players Won't Play in MLB this Season
    Freddie Freeman
    Nick Markakis
    Felix Hernandez
    Will Smith

    A lot of others thinking of opting out. Braves may sent the AAA team to play.

    Nick Markakis has opted out of this season after the Braves veteran outfielder had an "eye-opening" talk with teammate Freddie Freeman, who tested positive for COVID-19.

                      That's another problem. There is like a 60 player pool teams are keeping but the minor leagues, the actual MiLB has called off the entire season for the first time ever, 120 years or so.

                      60 is a pretty good number of players and I'm sure quite a few are pitchers, it's not like they will have strong workouts or season to come out of to be called up.

                              There is slowly but surely a lot of momentum building to NOT do MLB this year from BOTH the owners (who will lose $600m) and the players (who simply see this as 1 year closer to bigger CBA)

                                    Well this isn’t correct. Nick opted out. Freddie has not it’s just going to be a little while before he can play. Felix has a chance that he wasn’t going to make the roster for this short season. Nick was going to be a role player.
                                    I have not heard about smith saying he wasn’t going to play

                                        so you want to bet against the braves because you know this. maybe the books don't have this knowledge and won't adjust the lines. why not the theory that their replacement players will play harder trying to impress when most established players will just go through the motions like a regular september when they count down the days if they are out of it.

                                            I think baseball will be great this year, NBA too. Both Nascar and PGA seem to have picked back up in somehwat normalized markets with a bit of hyperactivity probably because of pent up volume coming out and that there is little to bet on in the US.

                                            I have no reason to believe the other markets won't start up the same and with both pent up volume and the format we are seeing, particularly in the NBA, there will early and quick opportunity to follow the money.

                                            I'm not saying we'll fold right back into that NBA market we left, but If I'm even half right about the above then the Contrarian Funds should have exceptional years. There may be increased opportuity as well, with the extra volume, so we might even get triggered back into the aggressive Funds.

                                            FlyMe readers and Contrarian Fund followers will understand what I mean in this post and understand just how profitable we can get in this short term, when our lines are crossed.

                                            Can't wait to get back into the swing of it. The more plays, the better, and the more plays the more bikini GIFs....

                                                I've heard hot steamy post victory shower sex with very muscular highly trained athletes is just something you HAVE to be able to experience. It can't be described with words



                                                Maybe a future business passion project?

                                                Think along the lines of the old timer fantasy camps they had for older guys to go to play baseball with old pros.

There may be increased opportuity as well, with the extra volume, so we might even get triggered back into the aggressive Funds.

                                                  FlyMe readers and Contrarian Fund followers will understand what I mean in this post and understand just how profitable we can get in this short term, when our lines are crossed.

                                                  I’m Not so sure about NBA, I fear the playoffs gonna be some straight dog doo-do basketball. Just can’t see them playing up to the level we typically see in playoffs with the long layoff and no home court/crowds.

                                                  Agree about mlb, I think it gonna be fantastic, really exciting. Obviously should lead to some incredibly surprising teams in the hunt! Should be fun to see a sprint instead of marathon!

                                                    Maybe a future business passion project?

                                                    Think along the lines of the old timer fantasy camps they had for older guys to go to play baseball with old pros.

                                                      They were talking bout Braves on local radio today and they said Freddy freeman had Covid-19 and supposedly he had some unpleasant symptoms, he told markakus about it and he was like “Fukk that”, lol.

                                                        60 is a pretty good number of players and I'm sure quite a few are pitchers, it's not like they will have strong workouts or season to come out of to be called up.
                                                        Cardinals have incredible depth in their pitching staff which could be a huge advantage. Any their position players get the corona and they could be in trouble tho!!
