Atlanta Braves
After trading away the services of Jaime Garcia last week, the Braves stood firm through the remainder of the trading frenzy. Perhaps the biggest news out of Atlanta came mid-week when the Braves announced the demotion of shortstop Dansby Swanson.
Dansby Swanson has been informed he’ll be sent to Triple-A Gwinnett. The Braves aren’t expected to announce the move until Thursday.

As Jon Heyman reported, the team was involved in the Sonny Gray conversation. However, they’re better off waiting until winter before assembling talent for 2018.
As a result, Braves fans can now focus on Game of Thrones.
braves have great pitching prospects for potential gray deal but yanks are better match due to a’s cf/positional needs. atl wont deal acuna.

And, while winter is-in-fact coming, you may need to convince some fans that everything will be ok.
