Atlanta Braves first baseman Matt Olson has been named a finalist for the Silver Slugger Award, recognizing the best offensive players at each position in Major League Baseball. The announcement comes as the Braves organization also confirmed changes to its front office structure.
Olson, who hit a solo home run during the National League Wild Card Series against the Philadelphia Phillies, is among the top candidates for the honor at first base. The Braves' front office adjustments were not detailed in the initial report, but the team indicated further announcements would follow.
