The Atlanta Braves have a young and exciting roster, one that is only a few pieces away from being a legitimate contender in the 2019 season.  While star players may be targeted this off-season, the Braves will certainly make a flurry of moves to improve their roster.

Looking at the current Atlanta Braves roster two words come to mind, potential and flexibility. With guys like Johan Camargo and Ozzie Albies capable of starting or playing multiple positions. Third base, shorstop, and catcher could all be positions of need for Atlanta.
