Atlanta Braves Sign Speedy Former Top Prospect


Joining the Atlanta Braves.

The Braves have signed outfielder Forrest Wall to a minor-league contract with an invite to spring training.

Wall has spent the last few seasons with the Toronto Blue Jays and the Seattle Mariners' organizations.

With the Mariners' Triple-A affiliate last year, Wall slashed a decent .255/.333/.354, with six home runs and an amazing 52 stolen bases.

The former top prospect will serve as organizational infield depth for the Braves this coming season.

For his minor-league career, the twenty-seven-year-old holds a solid .270/.349/.747 triple-slash line, with 47 home runs, 293 RBIs, 209 stolen bases and 464 runs scored. 

Wall is a former first-round pick by the Colorado Rockies in the 2014 MLB Draft.
