State of the Braves

First we get into a bit of news, including some arm troubles of Luke Jackson and Met Jacob DeGrom. Then I give you my season predictions on some of the Braves most important players. How many homers will Acuna hit this season? Will this year be the last for Swanson as a Brave? Who might compete for an MVP this year? Take a listen and see if you agree on my takes.

In this episode recent Braves news is discussed including Chipper Jones' take on Freddie Freeman leaving Atlanta, Acuna's time table to return, and perhaps some good news on Mike Soroka. I also break down strength of the Braves bullpen and the work that still needs to be done to bolster the bench.

Other than resigning Freddie Freeman and moving Marcel Ozuna, finding a true center fielder who can also be a difference maker offensively should be biggest priority for the Braves this offseason. In this episode, I give you may analysis of the center field market and who I may favorite target is.

In this episode we dive into what the Braves should do with Marcell Ozuna. Do you release him, trade him, or keep him? I'll analyze the different options and give you my take of what I would do.

This episode covers the reasons for and against the Braves resigning Freddie Freeman. Hint, there are many more reasons for resigning him. We also discuss the backup plans if Freeman is not resigned, and even the best option is not as good as bringing Freddie back.

An overview of what the Braves' priorities should be over the course of the offseason and a preview of several upcoming episodes.
