Danny Knobler of CBSSports.com reports that the Braves are "intrigued" by impending free agent Josh Hamilton. Well, who the heck wouldn't be? However, there are a number of reasons why the Braves and Hamilton aren't a match. In addition to concerns over injury and his past drug and alcohol addiction, the Braves' lineup is already lefty-heavy. Perhaps most important of all, the Braves aren't usually in the bidding for top free agents. Look for them to set their sights elsewhere.
