I understand the logic behind it. I just want the Braves to keep Freddie Freeman. I don't think he's going to fall off a cliff either.I understand the hesitancy. Freeman just turned 32 and Olson is 27. Lotta first basemen fall off a cliff quickly.
For their team culture it's probably better to just pay Freeman but I wouldn't kill them for signing Olson instead.
Now the Dodgers going after Freeman instead of Olson doesn't make sense.
