The Atlanta Braves have rebuilt their roster this season, but John Hart insists that the club will contend in 2015.

Atlanta has traded three of their top hitters -- Justin Upton, Jason Heyward and Evan Gattis -- and received only one Major League-ready player (Shelby Miller) in return.

Hart acknowledged that the Braves made the trades with an eye toward their long-term future.

"We may not be the prettiest girl at the dance," he said, "but we're going to be a lot of fun to dance with."
