Atlanta Braves fans will be able to watch more Spring Training action than ever before as the team makes ten Spring training games available across two dozen Gray Media stations.
Profar, a switch-hitting outfielder, will help the Atlanta Braves fill Ronald Acuña Jr.’s absence and could be their starting left fielder when Acuña returns.
