We have concluded with all the NL teams in our piece for tradeable pieces for the Atlanta Braves. Today we move forward and start with the American League teams.

The Atlanta Braves got a good look at all the AL East teams last season with the redone schedule as of course they only played eastern based teams. It is well documented that the Atlanta Braves have a longstanding “rivalry” with both the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees.

Trades between those teams are few and far in between, but the last few years, we have seen numerous trades between the Atlanta Braves and Baltimore Orioles.

Some have worked and some have not for the Atlanta Braves.

Of course you always have the Tampa Bay Rays, who are one of the most fascinating teams in the game due to budget constraints, and that might even be more the case this year as all teams will report financial losses due to no fans in the stands over the past season.

That of course leaves the up and coming Toronto Blue Jays as the fifth team in the division. Some have already indicated that they might be the team to beat in the division next year. I think that is a bit premature, but no doubt they are young and good and will be on the lookout for ways to get better over the next few weeks.

We are concerned about the Atlanta Braves though, and every team in this division has assets that can be valuable to the Atlanta Braves achieving another division goal and obviously hopefully a World Series title this time around.

Lets go ahead and get started and start naming some players that the Atlanta Braves front office might very well be intrigued by.
