This has been a trying start to the offseason for Braves fans. Due to an ongoing investigation into the Braves’ dealings on the international free agent market (and the draft according to some reports), general manager John Coppolella was forced to resign. In addition to Coppolella, special assistant Gordon Blakeley resigned and in Ken Rosenthal’s most recent report, these moves could be only the beginning for the Braves.
Rosenthal’s report is behind the Athletic’s paywall (seriously, you should consider subscribing as the folks over at The Athletic are doing great work), but the gist is that the Braves could be in big trouble.
