While the Atlanta Braves continue to wait for an assent from Josh Donaldson, it is possible that the field of teams angling for his signature has diminished by one. Maybe.
While the Braves are focused on the single major hole they still have in their lineup, the rival Washington Nationals needed to fill multiple holes.
Since the new year began, they seem to have stopped waiting on Donaldson and started spending money elsewhere (multiple sources available on each of these):
- THURSDAY AFTERNOON - an agreement with relief arm Will Harris.
