Sam Hilliard

Sam Hilliard, acquired by the Atlanta Braves in the 2022 off-season, made a significant early-season impact in 2023. Displaying defensive prowess and impressive offensive stats, Hilliard excelled in April with a .296/.367/.904 slash line, three home runs, and six RBIs in 19 games. Despite his contributions, he struggled to gain regular playing time under manager Brian Snitker. Hilliard’s season took a downturn after an injury on July 18, leading to a limited role and a waiver by the Braves in the offseason. The Baltimore Orioles claimed him, and Braves Country wishes Hilliard success with his new team.
