Hate to see Braves not resign Freddie

next year, but Matt Olson is a top 3 first baseman.
At least they signed a really good player. He’s actually hit more HR’s the last 5 years than Freddie. And, in a weird twist, he was born in Atlanta and went to Parkview HS in Gwinnett so we're getting a hometown player...if that means anything.
Losing Freddie is big, no doubt. But, there are tons of leaders on this team. We'll have a loaded line up once again.
Now, the money we could have spent, can go towards acquiring some arms and bolstering the bullpen.
1 Ronald Acuna RF
2 Ozzie Albies 2B
3 Matt Olson 1B
4 Austin Riley 3B
5 Marcell Ozuna DH
6 Dansby Swanson SS
7 Adam Duvall OF
8 Travis dArnaud C
9 Drew Waters

He's back when the Braves want to play him.

yep. He's been cleared of it

Was retroactively given a 20 game suspension.
He's apologized to his teammates and the fans. Just as importantly, teammates said they wanted him back so he'll bring a much needed bat to the lineup. Probably at DH.

They offered him a great contract, so at least they tried.

That isn't a bad line-up at all...

I’ve played a few season on MLB The Show 2021 and my created player was a first baseman. I beat out Freddie pretty easily for the starting job and we ended up winning 2 straight WS titles after trading him.

It's not just FF. They may haved saved some money but they gave up some prized farm guys. Langeliers was reportedly their #2 prospect. The others were all ranked inside the top 15 prospects for ATL. Heavy, heavy price.

It’s not just freeman. They lost Shea Langaleirs the number 1 catching prospect and future franchise player. All because of one year. So stupid. Now they will over pay to keep Soler and Joc and they both will underperform.
