With Josh Donaldson’s impending free agency, third base has become an open question yet again for the Braves. This was always a likely outcome as Donaldson signed a one year deal to prove his worth to this year’s market and the Braves weren’t going to sign him to an extension when they could just sign him with the qualifying offer attached (which it has already been reported by Bowman and others that he will receive it and will reject it) to put the team in a better negotiating position.
Below you will find some possible options for the Braves at third base as we head into free agency in the coming days.
