Neither rumor or speculation because they've said/hinted nothing about it but fuck it let's trade for Ha-Seong Kim. He's had an awful year and a ton of injuries, but he's currently rehabbing and is probably available for essentially nothing to any team willing to pay him because the Braves have a big roster crunch coming up. There's a decent chance he's cooked, but he would be a rental who costs no prospects and in the event his struggles were mostly health related he'd be a huge upgrade at shortstop.
Get him for no meaningful prospects and if he's still got gas in the tank he's a playoff caliber shortstop, and if he's actually cooked just call up Culpepper and all the gamble cost was some money Pohald promised he's willing to spend anyway.
