The AJC reported that the Atlanta Braves and Suntrust Park have been selected to host the 2021 All-Star game with the formal announcement coming next week.
This is an opportunity for the Braves to not only showcase SunTrust Park (or whatever it’ll be named by then), but also the young talent that makes the Braves exciting to watch on a nightly basis.
That topic immediately started a debate among us writers for TomahawkTake about who the Braves should send to the Home Run Derby… if anyone.
I think Bryce Harper last year – and many before him – showed the value of having the hometown hero in the derby.
