Braves News: Residual effects of a lockout, Jay Jackson acquired from Giants and more

We are just over a week away from the expiration of the CBA and likely the start of what could be a lengthy lockout. We have become accustomed to slow moving offseasons in recent years, but there are other residual effects that a lockout could have on players.

That was one of several topics that came up in a great interview by The Athletic’s David O’Brien with Charlie Morton. Morton is currently working his way back from surgery after fracturing his fibula during the World Series. However, once the lockout begins, he won’t be allowed to do his rehab at team facilities.
