How do relatively new faces like Ender Inciarte, Erick Aybar and Hector Olivera fare in Atlanta?
As we continue our preview of the upcoming Braves season, we take a look at the best- and worst-case scenarios for each of the Braves' position players.
First base
Best case: Freddie Freeman's wrist issues go away. He gets back to being one of the National League's better first basemen while providing a solid presence in the lineup for 150+ games. He flirts with a .300/.400/.500 line as he did in 2013.
Worst case: The wrist problems don't go away, and suddenly the $103 million he's owed through 2021 becomes a huge concern.
