2020's trade deadline has come and gone, leaving Atlanta with disappointed fans. DOB and EOF discuss the atmosphere within a clubhouse that is welcoming in new players after the deadline, and those whose team didn't make a move (4:30). What's the prevailing sentiment from both ends of the spectrum? For those teams that avoided making trades, is it a foreboding sign players? The guys address the elephant in the room: Why didn't Atlanta secure an available, high-profile pitcher to reinforce their rotation at the deadline (8:15)? Was the asking price too steep (14:30)? The Braves most recent trade acquisition, Tommy Milone, was roughed up against Philadelphia in his first start for the Bravos. The challenging circumstances of his start in mind though, is it OK to give him a mulligan (19:30)? What was Snitker's opinion on a relatively uneventful deadline (24:00)? David and Eric react to The Athletic's Jeff Schultz's column illuminating Atlanta and GM Alex Anthopoulos' mistake in not signing championship-contending commodities last Winter (32:15). The guys detail their interaction with professional athletes and how they comport themselves, sign autographs, and consciously, make an effort to make a positive, lasting impression (47:00). Lastly, will we see Tucker Davidson called up soon, and is Max Fried a top-5 lock in the NL Cy Young race (1:05:30)?
