The Braves surprised many with their early selections in the draft, including the drafting of top catching prospect Shea Langeliers at ninth overall. Atlanta and new scouting director Dana Brown focused on college bats early in the draft, a strong departure from their previous strategy with Brian Bridges which centered on high-ceiling arm talent. It remains to be seen how this will play out for them, but for now the focus turns to signing the 41 players they drafted over the past three days. With players like Langeliers, Braden Shewmake, and Beau Philip leading off the high value slots the Braves should have some money to play with late, opening up the door for some of the talented high school and under class players they drafted in the late rounds.
