The Braves may not be able to get a big deal done at the Winter Meetings but they have been doing their due diligence. Atlanta reportedly had talks with Oakland about starter Sonny Gray but the price was more than they were willing to give up.
John Hart and John Coppolella met with the media Monday evening at the Winter Meetings and talked about their pursuit of a frontline starter. They reiterated that they were willing to make a deal if it made sense but it isn’t a situation where they will empty the farm for a single player.
