The Atlanta Braves are evaluating a trade to acquire Corey Seager from the Texas Rangers, following their NL Division Series elimination on October 7. Reports indicate the Rangers are seeking three top prospects, including Eric Hartman, Cam Caminiti, and Tate Southisene, to fill the shortstop position.
