When the Atlanta Braves went about starting a rebuild, their deals made it obvious that they weren’t looking for a quick fix nor a long-term one-off solution. The Braves’ goal has been all along to build up a system that produces “waves” (a phrase first heard in John Coppolella’s interview with Jonah Keri) of prospects.
In my recent monthly all questions answered, I had a Tomahawk Take reader bring forward something that I’ve been putting together in my brain for a while – what exactly do those waves look like right now? So I thought I’d sit down and put them all together in a (somewhat) organized fashion!
