Contrary to many reports, the Freddie Freeman negotiations haven’t come to an end as quickly as most expected. He remains an unrestricted free agent, but that could change at a moment’s notice. Fans are waiting anxiously, but it’s not just the fans. Freeman’s former teammates are also awaiting a decision, as Austin Riley admitted to updating Twitter every few moments to see if Freeman has re-signed.

This goes to show just how close to the vest the Braves keep their negotiations. Alex Anthopoulos moves in silence, which is why MLB insiders rarely know what the Braves are up to. For business purposes, it’s much better that way. But for fans, it’s brutal being constantly left in the dark.
