Plus, Braves trending toward another short-term lineup addition, whether they pounced too early in pitching market and a lingering bobblehead question Where the Braves are concerned, the hot stove has resembled something a little more lukewarm.
Braves fans have waited patiently for months, and we’ve finally got a juicy free agency rumor to report. Earlier today, Robert Murray leaked that Atlanta is ‘circling on’ Phillies All-Star catcher JT Realmuto.
I don’t really think Alex Anthopoulos lets a lot of stuff like this out, so while I’m skeptical and surprised, this is a signing I wouldn’t be mad about whatsoever: If Atlanta does complete a deal with JT Realmuto, they would certainly be out of the Marcell Ozuna sweepstakes.
The Philadelphia Phillies may have competition from a familiar foe in the J.T. Realmuto free-agent sweepstakes. Per Robert Murray of FanSided, the Atlanta Braves are "circling" the two-time All-Star catcher...

The Braves have made some bad deals over the years The 2020-21 hot stove season has heated up a little bit of late, and perhaps that “warmth” will even spread to Atlanta at some point.

George Springer is headed to Toronto while Michael Brantley will remain in Houston. While two big outfield targets came off the board over the past 24 hours, the Atlanta Braves remain in a holding pattern.
Baseball’s national media made a pretty major gaffe today, announcing pre-maturely that Michael Brantley had reached a three-year deal with the Blue Jays, joining his good buddy George Springer.
