2I agree, hopefully the Braves can turn out to still build their farm system into great players like Micheal Harris and Vaughn Grissom.
It's a solid "no" from me and I'm a rabid Braves fan. Minter's a top relief pitcher in Majors. Top 5 WAR last year. He was pretty good in 2021, when he was a key player in their World Series Championship. The Braves have him for at least the next two seasons. Ian Anderson's under control for 4 more seasons! He certainly had some missteps in 2022 and I'm not sure that the Braves have a need for him in Atlanta for the coming season. But they have him for quite a while and he's proven that he can pitch in the Majors ... just not consistently. I'm pointing a straight finger at the two very young guys that this trade has in going back to Atlanta. There's just no way in any reality that this site's got an accurate read on the value of two guys. Their value's tied to their future value anyways. If the Braves were doing a teardown then maybe this sort of thing would make sense. Among the trade proposals involving the Braves this one is among those that I am immediately sure it has a snowball's chance.
