Happy Monday! It is the deadest of dead periods in the world of Major League Baseball. However, that did not stop us from recording Episode 47 of the Talking Chop podcast and fun was had by all. Topics revolving around the Atlanta Braves include the following:
- Freddie Freeman comes in at No. 1 among MLB first basemen according to ESPN’s Buster Olney. We debate the topic and where Freeman should actually rank.
- Carlos wrote about Matt Wisler and his slider this week. You can read about it here.
- The Braves have been linked to a bevy of infielders via the free agent or trade market. Names include Trevor Plouffe, Aaron Hill, Brandon Phillips and Brian Dozier. Which of these should you care about?
- Expectations for 2017 when it comes to Sean Rodriguez’s performance
- Could Travis Demeritte move to third base in the near future? Does that even make sense for both parties?
- Which non-top 25 prospect in the system could improve their stock dramatically in the next year or so?
- Much, much more
