Freddie Freeman went 4-for-4 with a homer and five RBIs to help lead the Braves to a 9-7 win and a two-game sweep of the Twins.
The Braves pulled off another trade prior to Wednesday’s game sending Lucas Harrell and Dario Alvarez to the Rangers in exchange for minor league second baseman Travis Demeritte who was ranked as Texas’ No. 20 prospect.
Our own Matt Powers provides a scouting report for Demeritte who was a participant in the 2016 Futures Game.
ESPN.com’s Keith Law gives his seal of approval to the Braves for flipping Harrell and Alvarez to the Rangers for a former first-round pick with plus power potential in Demeritte.
