Fast forward to 2022, Austin Riley is a World Series Champion, MVP candidate third baseman, and signed to the Braves for the next 10 years. 🪓🪓🪓🪓 Chipper was spot on
Im listening to this in September 2020, when Austin Riley broke out of his first long slump and I think this kid is gonna be our 3rd baseman for the next 15 years
Seeing this after A-rile breaks Hank's record for XBH's in a month and signing 10 years for $212 million. Good on him, just a good ole' boy who likes to Hunt and crush baseballs... and it's not deer season!
Francoeur used to do that childish crap like that when he was in the dugout with Chipper Jones from 2005-2007. Chipper as guest analyst should be great and you cannot get any more Braves baseball than that.
The braves have 3 mvp caliber players at the price of 1 in freeman riley and acuña. Let alone an above average rotation in morton, friers, and anderson and soroka. They are gonna win the division this year with acuña and soroka hurt. This team, if fully healthy is a contender for next year along the dodgers (if they recover trevor bauer) the jays, the rays (if glasnow gets healthy by end of year). You look at that division and acuña and riley combined make less than lindor on his own for the next five years. If freddie freeman doesnt sign an insane extension the braves will be good for many years to come. (Assuming everyone stays healthy)
