Locked On Braves - Daily Podcast On The Atlanta BravesAbout this episode
Atlanta Braves weigh high-risk, high-reward trade scenarios as Byron Buxton emerges as a potential target.

Jake Mastroianni breaks down Buxton’s fit alongside Ronald Acuña Jr., Matt Olson, and Austin Riley, exploring outfield shifts, DH options, and the Braves’ evolving offensive approach. Contract details, possible trade packages, and impact on the batting order anchor the discussion, while new signings and MLB hot stove activity add urgency to Atlanta’s winter maneuvers.
