How does that make any sense for the Braves? It is one thing to not sign your star franchise guy to a bad contract, but then to instead plunder your entire farm system for a cheap knock off? But, why?
Cheaper on the short term, younger comparable player over the next 5-8 years. They have their core locked up long term and Olson slides in with the youth.
