Arcadia Economics Michael McNair: How Trump Administration Is Driving The Dollar LowerMichael McNair: How Trump Administration Is Driving The Dollar Lower There has certainly been a lot of chaos in the financial markets since Trump started his second term. Even aside from the tariffs, we've seen the dollar index plummet in the time Trump's been in office, amidst numerous comments from Trump cabinet officials about how they feel the dollar is just too high. Meanwhile, as the tariff policies have frequently changed, while the commentary from the Trump team often leaves you feeling like you're getting less than the full story, fortunately, I have some good news. Because I've mentioned fund...

State of the Braves Ep. 152- So Far, ProfarThe Braves finally break radio silence and sign all-star left fielder Jurikson Profar to a 3-year, $42 million deal. Profar, the newest Brave from Curacao, fits for many reasons, not only filling an obvious need in the outfield, but bringing on-base skills and a low strikeout rate to a team that prioritizes power. Profar is coming off a career year, so the big question is, will the changes he made last off-season that worked so well be a permanent fix. If so, the fan favorite from San Diego may just become a fan favorite in Atlanta. We also discuss the...

State of the Braves Ep 112- Outfield PreviewHow good can the Braves outfield actually be? The sky is the limit for this talented young group anchored by the reigning MVP. Ronald Acuna, Michael Harris, and Jarred Kelenic could make up one of the best outfields in Braves history.

State of the Braves Ep. 107- Prospect Guide: Part 1While the Braves' farm system is generally regarded as bottom third in baseball, the team has a great recent track record of development. Their commitment to high-character guys with upside has paid off most recently with players like Michael Harris and Spencer Strider. In this episode, I rank the Braves 9th-16th best prospects.

State of the Braves Ep. 96- Roster InsanityAfter a quiet start to the offseason, the Braves front office made some major changes this week, clearing 10 spots on their 40 man roster. Among those leaving are long-time Braves and fan favorites Michael Soroka and Kyle Wright. We'll break down the impacts of these moves and how it might mean big things to come as the Braves re-tool their roster in preparation for 2024. We also celebrate Ronald Acuna's MVP award!

State of the Braves Ep. 82- Soroka's Injury ScareAfter a great west coast road trip, the Braves have a bad few days at home. Not only do they lose two to the Cardinals, but they lose Michael Soroka for the season and they experience another flat start from Spencer Strider. Thankfully it appears Soroka avoided a major injury, but it still marks the end to a difficult comeback season for him. In some positive news, Matt Olson is hitting bombs again.

State of the Braves Ep. 75- August HeatAlex Anthopolous didn't make any huge splashes during the trade deadline, but his few minor moves still made the club better. Would the cost for a starter been worth it? As the calendar turns to August the Braves continue to show their power and welcome the return of Max Fried. In the Angels' series Michael Harris II shows why he is still on of the most talented, exciting players to watch. Ronald Acuna continues to make his MVP cast while Matt Olson and Austin Riley continue to hit bombs.

State of the Braves Ep. 67- Well, June Was FunThe Braves had an historic June, going 21-4 and crushing an NL record 61 homers. Even as the Braves still await the return of Max Fried, they appear to be the class of the National League and perhaps all of baseball. In this episode we break down the reasons the Braves found another gear offensively including the reemergence of Michael Harris and Eddie Rosario, as well as the monster run that Matt Olson is on.

State of the Braves Ep. 66- The Strider QuestionMichael Harris struggled through the first two plus months of the season, but now seems to be coming out of it in a big way.

State of the Braves Ep. 65- Rethinking Ozuna and All-Star VotingDespite dropping their final game against the Nationals, the Braves are riding high, having won 8 of their last 10 games. One area that could improve is the starting pitching. Facing the weak Tigers' offense might be just what the doctor ordered. Also, have you listened to the Braves' radio broadcast lately? Joe Simpson and Ben Ingram should be appreciated. Meanwhile, should we rethink how we view Marcell Ozuna? Not only has he been one of the best hitters in baseball for more than a month, but apparently he is also giving sage wisdom to Michael Harris. And finally, let's take...

State of the Braves Ep. 62- Sleepwalking in OaklandThe Braves continued their less than stellar stretch of baseball, losing two out of three games to the lowly Oakland A's. Despite continued bullpen struggles and inconsistent offense, some positive developments are happening. Michael Soroka made his much anticipated return and top prospect A.J. Smith-Shawver was called up to bolster the bullpen. As the Braves get an off day and turn around to play the surging D'Backs, perhaps this is the moment for a nice Braves run of good baseball.

2023-06-0228 min

State of the Braves Ep. 61- A Sign of Things to ComeDespite being 7-10 over their last 17 games, their are several positive developments that have me feeling optimistic about the next stretch of games for the Braves. One of those is the long awaited return of Michael Soroka. We should all be pulling for him and appreciate the journey he has taken to get back to the big leagues.

State of the Braves Ep. 54- Player PredictionsLet's dive into player predictions for the upcoming season. Will Acuna be back to his dominant self?

I break down every key player for the Braves and give an over/under prediction on Fangraphs projections.

State of the Braves Ep. 29- Money Mike Gets PaidThe Braves doll out a surprising but well deserved 8 year extension for Michael Harris II, as their young and talented core continues to be solidified for years to come. Mike Soroka makes his first professional starting over two years and it goes quite well. The Braves have won 8 straight and cut the Mets' divisional lead to 3 1/2 games, but will face a tough task as Scherzer and DeGrom await them in the next two games. And Vaughn Grissom has been awesome in the first week of his young career.

State of the Braves Ep. 23- Money Mike and the MoustacheThe Braves trade Drew Waters to the Royals for the #35 pick in the draft and also pick up Robinson Cano for next to nothing. How will these moves impact the club? We also look at which Braves will be going to Hollywood for the all-star game and which Braves got snubbed. And we also break down just how good rookie sensations Michael Harris II and Spencer Strider have been so far this season. Where would the Braves be without them?

State of the Braves Ep. 19- Getting Some TractionAfter a couple of disappointing losses to the Dbacks, the Braves have won three straight games with two excellent performances by the offense and one dominating start from Max Fried. Dansby Swanson has been burning hot over the last few weeks, and several others are contributing greatly as well. Michael Harris has also provided a spark, especially defensively. We discuss why Snitker continues to trot Marcel Ozuna out to the outfield and what to do about Adam Duvall. Ultimately, the Braves have an opportunity to go on a run and finally gain some momentum. #braves #gobrave #atlantabraves #dansby

State of the Braves Ep. 18- A New HopeAfter two months of horrendous outfield play, the Braves promote top prospect Michael Harris. With Harris in centerfield and Acuna coming back (hopefully), the outlook of the Braves outfield looks much better. But just how bad had the Braves outfield been? Why Harris over other top prospect Drew Waters? And Why promote Harris now?

I AM SHE The Heart of a Man Most Women are able to articulate what they feel through words or actions. The woman really wants you to know "her heart" concerning matters.
