2 mins agoMLB.com's Mark Bowman feels that Atlanta Braves infielder Nick Allen could have the early edge to begin the 2025 season as the team's backup infielder over Christian Cairo, who was a Rule 5 pick from the Cleveland Guardians this offseason. Cairo needs to stay on the big-league roster all season unless the Braves want to risk losing him back to Cleveland. In addition to Allen, infielder Luke Williams' chances of making the Opening Day roster are helped by the fact that he's out of minor-league options. The Braves acquired Allen from the Athletics in November. The 26-year-old has hit only .209/.254/.283 in three major-league seasons, but he does impress with his glove and could also play second base in a pinch if Ozzie Albies is injured again in 2025. Bowman writes that Allen's bat conjures memories of former Braves infielder Rafael Belliard.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
