The previously unreported twist is this: After Freeman’s agent, Casey Close, in
formed Atlanta they were out on his client during the post-lockout free-agent fr
enzy in March 2022, the Braves tried to sign another first baseman before acquir
ing Olson from the then-Oakland Athletics.
That first baseman, according to people familiar with both the team’s and playe
r’s discussions, was Anthony Rizzo.
The parties did not get close to a deal. The Braves, who do not give players opt
-outs, declined to offer Rizzo the kind of contract he received from the New Yor
k Yankees — two years, $32 million, with an opt out after the first year. The t
eam’s preference, according to a person close to Rizzo, was to sign him for one
year
Unable to reach agreement with Rizzo, the Braves were left with two choices at f
irst base — stay internal with Adam Duvall, or pursue a trade for Olson. They q
uickly pivoted, grabbing Olson for a package of four prospects, only one of whom
, catcher Shea Langeliers, amounted to a player of consequence.
Olson, who signed an eight-year, $168 million extension the day after joining th
e Braves, hasn’t been quite as good as Freeman offensively. His OPS+ as a Brave
is 38 percent above league average, while Freeman’s as a Dodger is 50 percent
above. But Olson, 32, is four years younger than Freeman, and a more highly rate
d (and elite) defender. This season, he also is an early candidate for National
League MVP.
