According to David O’Brien of the Athletic, the Braves still have some money to spend, even after inking Matt Olson to an eight-year extension worth about $21 million AAV.
Person familiar with #Braves plan said they probably have about $15M more to spend this spring after signing Olson, who'll get $15M this year.

I trust what DOB has to say, but with how aggressive Alex Anthopoulos has been this offseason, I wouldn’t be shocked if this number was higher. This is just a personal hunch. The Braves still have two outfield spots to fill, and they have been in talks with Jorge Soler. They could also look to add an arm to the rotation — I mentioned Zack Greinke as a potential option. Regardless, the Braves aren’t done, and I trust Alex Anthopoulos to improve this team even more before the start of the season.
