Braves Bring Back Pablo Sandoval
4 years agoThe Atlanta Braves agreed to a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training with corner infielder Pablo Sandoval on Sunday. Sandoval will receive $1 million if he's put on the team's big-league roster, according to a source. The 34-year-old switch-hitter hit just .214 with a .549 OPS in 94 plate appearances with the Giants and Braves in 2020. He was promoted to the active roster on the final day of the regular season and went hitless in four plate appearances in the postseason. Sandoval began declining back in 2015, but he managed to hit .268 with an .820 OPS for San Francisco in 2019. He will have the chance to provide Atlanta with some bench depth and some flexibility at third base with Austin Riley. You can ignore Sandoval in the vast majority of fantasy leagues.
