The Atlanta Braves need a corner outfielder and catcher. That much is obvious – and acknowledged. On Sunday, Mark Bowman weighed in with a ‘mailbag’ piece after being relatively quiet since season’s end.
But the direction that Bowman took wasn’t entirely what might have been expected in answering his first question… until you know who asked it.
Here’s that question:
Do the Braves see Ronald Acuna Jr. as a center fielder or corner outfielder? And is this a factor when looking into trades and/or free agents?
— @baldheaded1derThe question came from Ryan Cothran… who actually used to write for us in these pages before venturing out to another pasture.
