I am coming from the position of being unconvinced of the reality of
Germano-Balto-Slavic.  In fact I cannot consistently place Balto-Slavic in
the IE tree.  Depending on how I analyze it, it either comes out linked to
Germanic (as you suggest), or linked to the Greek and Indo-Iranian groups.

[Actually, I tentatively associate Corded Ware with German-Italo-Celtic,
with *possible* inclusion of Balto-Slavic: I call this loose grouping
"North European"].
