Locked On Braves - Daily Podcast On The Atlanta BravesAbout this episode
Atlanta Braves weigh high-risk, high-reward blockbuster trades for Byron Buxton and Ketel Marte—could bold moves ignite another World Series run? Jake Mastroianni explores what it would take for the Braves to land these All-Star talents, dissecting trade packages, injury risks, and how such moves could shake up the current roster without creating new holes. Key topics include the Braves’ approach to balancing power and contact in the lineup, the importance of not sacrificing core players like Spencer Schwellenbach or Michael Harris, and the front office’s dilemma between spending in free agency or leveraging top pitching prospects for major upgrades. Mailbag questions cover Atlanta’s shortstop search, possible free agent signings, and bullpen priorities, while weighing whether GM Alex Anthopoulos will finally take the big swing Braves fans have been waiting for.
