I feel weirdly confident that the reports of the contract offer were hours ago and nothing has happened since.

Seems like Freddie is really trying to stay a Brave. Just need AA to not overthink this.

AA has always let his FA's test the market and then he makes the final offer. He doesn't negotiate against himself.

Sometimes it works(Ozuna), sometimes it doesn't(Donaldson), though I think AA let the latter walk. So we'll see what happens here. Hopefully the former.

Friends at 680 say Freddie has a massive offer from Dodgers but presented it to the Braves to match because he wants to stay a Brave.

Also says that Olsen most likely to Yanks.

Seems a given Freddie is gone


Braves management would have to be complete retards on the level of Biden to get team friendly deals with Acuna and Albies and then let Freddie walk over 1 year

Alex doesn’t seem like the Biden type

If this is the case and they are trying multiple ways to appease him, I will be very disappointed if he chooses to leave. And the Dodgers of all teams

Sources told me before the lockout that Freddie Freeman's decision would come down to what's best for his family. He has family in SoCal & lives here in offseason, his wife Chelsea is from Florida and ideally would like to remain in the south, where they live in ATL during season

I spoke to Ronald Acuña's trainers at the Alex Salazar Academy in Barquisimeto, Venezuela. Acuña is hopeful for a May return after rehabbing and working out extensively in the winter. Of course, all depends on his progress this spring. Video of Acuña’s BP:
