It's the worst-case scenario for Braves fans, but most of us were prepared for it.

If you take sentimental thoughts out of decision I believe the Braves made the better choice.

Why? We signed Olson, who is just as good and only 27. Plus

No Freeman gave everything he had to the braves, you can respect the player but dislike the team

I don't watch baseball until maybe the Playoffs but that is a great move for Freeman and LA but bad for all the other teams in the NL.

So the braves offered him 5/$140 but he really needed 6/$160. Was never about staying with the braves. It was about squeezing every last drop out of them. Going to the dodgers might be worse than going to another nl east team. Whatever it’s a business he gave so much blah blah blah right? Nah, if it not for fear of offending the sweet sensibilities of other fans, I’d go to the June series in truist and boo him every time he came up to hit

He should fire his agent and take a basic math course himself. 40% more cost of living in Ca vs Ga. He needs $196m in Ca to equal the $140 offered in Ga.

Got a point. Though I'm sure all those millionaires in Cali have ways around it. You know the Left, talk a good game but there is a reason why they are the party of the rich and famous.

Wasn't about the money; he wanted to go home and play in LA. He was offered more from other clubs.
The Dodgers also give him a better chance to win every year.
Yeah I know Braves wont it all last year but cmon they also won 88 games.
Glad Freeman is a Dodger.

It was something about getting a 6 year deal instead of a 5. Not sure of the why though?

dollars for a year's work? I am not happy about him leaving the Braves either, but he thought he was worth a six year deal, which they would not give him, and someone else did. I would be VERY surprised if the Braves were not given a chance to match the Dodgers offer, and declined.

Hate to see it, but good business and Braves are going to be

stacked next year. Emotion aside the Braves should lose nothing at first or at the plate, Rosario returns, and money to fill other needs.
Hope the Braves SMASH the Dodgers again this season.
