The Atlanta Braves have begun to discuss a contract extension with Dansby Swanson, according to a report.

Swanson is currently scheduled to become a free agent after the World Series. The Braves have been aggressive in locking up young stars as of late, agreeing to lengthy deals with Ronald Acuna, Jr., Ozzie Albies, Matt Olson, Austin Riley and Michael Harris II.

However, when those agreements were reached none of the players were on the verge of hitting the open market.
