Braves Fans Are Freaking Out Over These 6 Remaining Free Agents

The free agent market has trimmed quickly as the new year approaches, leaving many teams, including the Atlanta Braves, scrambling to find the best available players to fill their remaining roster gaps. Braves President of Baseball Operations Alex Anthopoulos has clearly been wary of a market that has been inflated in the early going, particularly when it comes to starting pitching.

Despite the high prices, the Braves still have several areas of need that they must address if they hope to compete for a championship in the upcoming season. The good news is that there are still several high-quality free agents available who could potentially fill these gaps and help the team achieve their goals.

One of the biggest areas of need for the Braves is starting pitching. The team has a strong core of young position players, but their starting rotation is still a bit of a question mark. With several high-priced free agent starters already off the market, the Braves may need to get creative if they hope to find a reliable starter to add to their rotation.

Another area of need for the Braves is the bullpen. The team has a strong closer in Will Smith, but they could still use a few more reliable arms to help get the ball to him in the late innings. There are several free agent relievers still available who could potentially fill this role and help solidify the Braves bullpen.

In addition to pitching, the Braves could also use an upgrade at one or two positions on the field. The team has a strong core of young hitters, but they could still use a veteran bat or two to help provide some depth and balance to the lineup.

With all of these areas of need in mind, here are six remaining free agents who could potentially be a good fit for the Braves. These players all have the potential to make a significant impact on the team and help them achieve their goals in the upcoming season.
