There is much uncertainty in the upcoming draft, but one thing that has been pushed with all of the conviction of a goose in a bread shop is that the Atlanta Braves are looking to take a pitcher in the first round. They’ve done it now for two years, so why would they stop now. There are, however, two important things to realize. One, with a front office notorious for not leaking things to the media, it’s likely these sources are not coming directly from the top. Two, the Braves in the past two years have been limited by bonus pool restrictions and COVID-complicated scouting seasons and the best options available simply have been college pitchers.
