After dropping a weekend series to the Red Sox, the Braves fell behind the Washington Nationals in the NL East. The Mets and Phillies are so far ahead of Atlanta they can barely see the dust trail they've left them in. As the Braves approach a make-or-break month of June that could see some changes on the roster, including to players you might have previously considered untouchable.
"I realize the trade deadline isn't close, but you're still allowed to make trades," suggests Andy Bunker. "You have to bring in someone at shortstop or left field who can hit. I don't think anything is off the table, I don't knw how many guys on this team I consider untouchable, but it's way less than I thought it would be. Ronald Acuna, Strider, Sale, and Schwellenbach, that's about it."
"They probably won't (trade Riley or Olson), but it shouldn't be no conversation because this just isn't working, this offense isn't good," continued Bunker. "It's not a month, it's not 50 games, it's 200 games now where this offense isn't what it's built to be, so you got to change something."
