Kris Bryant

Last but not least, we’re going back to Chicago here folks. Does the name Kris Bryant sound familiar? Bryant and the Braves have been linked for a while now when it comes to trade talks. After the 2021 campaign comes to a close, Bryant will be a free agent and could leave Chicago.

You’re telling us he wouldn’t be interested in maybe signing with Atlanta? The Braves are going to be a team receiving plenty of interest from free agents in the coming years. That will be the case with Albies and Acuña consistently sending balls to the moon.

Bryant is without question one of the best third baseman in the league too. If he went to Atlanta, he’d take over the hot corner for Austin Riley. No disrespect to Riley, but having Bryant take over the position would be a massive upgrade. Bryant to Atlanta? Fans sure like the sound of that.
