The Atlanta Braves<\/a> have not created a move on any targets that would excite the fans for the upcoming season. General Manager Alex Anthopoulos’ patience is a virtue in most situations. Unfortunately, this free agency period is an antithesis of his philosophy. With the Braves losing key pieces such as Max Fried<\/a><\/strong>, Charlie Morton<\/a>, Travis d’Arnaud<\/a>, <\/strong>and Gio Urshela<\/a><\/strong>, the fans have lost influential pieces that created a heartbeat around the clubhouse. The Braves vow to be “World Series or bust,” but many have lost their patience with other teams making significant signings. With Major League Baseball’s long free-agency period, many formidable names exist in the pool of free agents. Ken Rosenthal spoke on Fair Territory<\/em> about his thoughts on the Braves’ expectations, adding the Braves’ desire for a starting pitcher, reliever and backup outfielder.<\/p>\n
