With the calendar turning over to July, last month’s MLB Draft is no longer a common storyline for the Atlanta Braves.
Now that all 30 Major League teams’ Rookie and Rookie-Advanced clubs have started play, all the hype surrounds the newly-drafted players and their performances thus far.
For Atlanta Braves fans, we shouldn’t look any further than our own organization to find such a performance, for first baseman Bryce Ball has been amazing in his first two weeks of play.
Ball was a late-round pick, selected by the Atlanta Braves in the 24th round out of Dallas Baptist, where he played just one season.
