The Atlanta Braves filled their shortstop hole this offseason by trading for Mauricio Dubon, but they could have a chance to get a major upgrade at the position.<\/p>\n

Fansided\u2019s Christopher Kline believes the Braves could be the perfect trade candidate for Texas Rangers two-time World Series MVP Corey Seager, as he could boost their offense to be able to challenge their division rival, the Philadelphia Phillies.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Texas Rangers are listening on Corey Seager, who is due $186 million over the next six years\u2026Are the Atlanta Braves really prepared to foot the bill on Seager’s contract? It wouldn’t be the most classically Alex Anthopoulos move, but the Braves need to turn their fortunes around and shortstop in the most glaring hole on the roster. Atlanta can pepper the Rangers with young pitchers and use Seager to seriously challenge Philly atop the division,\u201d Kline wrote.<\/p>\n

This past season, Seager slashed .271\/373\/.487\/.860 with 19 doubles, 21 home runs, and 50 RBI in 102 games played. He was a little injury-prone last season, but his normal self produces around 40 homers and almost 100 RBI a season.<\/p>\n

If the Braves were to get Seager, it\u2019s not like they have a logjam at shortstop. Dubon is a utility man and could play in the outfield or DH as well.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, the Braves consider this, as if they can upgrade their offense as well as they\u2019ve done with their pitching, they could make themselves division favorites.<\/p>\n
