As winter thaws, baseball fans eagerly anticipate the Atlanta Braves offensive performance. After a lackluster 2022 season, the team is poised for a comeback, with new players and star performers stepping up. The projected lineup features Drake Baldwin or Sean Murphy at catcher, Matt Olson at first base, Ozzie Albies at second, Austin Riley at third, Michael Harris the Second in center field, and Ronald Acuña Junior in right field. However, the shortstop and designated hitter positions remain uncertain, with the Braves actively seeking a strong bat for the latter role. If a dedicated designated hitter is acquired, it could lead to Sean Murphy being traded, depending on his health status and the teams decisions.
