Atlanta Braves: 5 players to consider signing after the draft

In an otherwise normal draft, the Atlanta Braves would be mulling over forty different names as part of a 1200+ class of players taken overall.

My friend Fred has already pointed out the history of Braves draftees coming after Round 5.. and it isn't pretty.

But what if you could change the equation? What if you didn't have to wait on 29 other teams to make selections? What if you got some players who could choose a team as much as the team choosing the player?

That's the situation that will unfold starting on Sunday morning when the draft is over and something I'll call the "amateur free agency" period begins.
