Atlanta Braves
The Braves have an exciting young core and are fresh off their first division title since 2013. Right fielder Nick Markakis was a big part of this success — he won his third Gold Glove in 2018, along with making his first All-Star game appearance and taking home his first Silver Slugger.
However, Atlanta has a hole in the corner outfield spot with the 35-year-old hitting free agency. Harper to Hotlanta has the potential of being a natural fit, but it doesn’t appear likely right now:
And having said that, I was almost immediately assured (again) by someone I trust in these matters that the #Braves are not — repeat *not* — in on Harper and this person doesn't think they will be, said no way they'd give 10-year deal, etc. So, there ya go. Quashing my rumor. https://t.co/2hgL9vUkPY
