Many players have underwhelmed in what's turned out to be a disastrous Atlanta Braves season, but perhaps nobody has struggled more than Ozzie Albies. Yet, despite his struggles, the Braves plan on picking up his $7 million club option, according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.

The Atlanta Braves going out and acquiring a starting pitcher has changed the plans from what was initially reported for the upcoming series

The #Braves today acquired RHP Erick Fedde and cash considerations from the St. Louis Cardinals in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations. To make room on the 40-man roster, Atlanta transferred RHP Grant Holmes to the 60-day injured list.

The trouble with playing a regulation MLB game at Bristol Motor Speedway is that, well, the venue is what the name suggests: A motor speedway.

The Atlanta Braves placed right-hander Grant Holmes on the 15-day injured list on Sunday, meaning all five of the club’s starters on Opening Day are on the injured list.

One player who will likely be available is Ozuna, and he could make a lot of sense for a team like the Rangers that is hungry for offense. The designated hitter spot was supposed to be taken care of when the team signed Joc Pederson in the offseason. However, the left-handed slugger has been injured and has struggled when healthy.
