Each one of the posters were created with the players’ skills, hobbies and nicknames in mind.

Matt Olson’s poster features the theme of homecoming as the Gwinnett County native is playing in his first season for the hometown team.

Dansby Swanson and Ozzie Albies star in “Turn 2″ with the duo’s knack for turning a double play and flashy catches. Austin Riley’s passion for hunting is clear with “The Bowman” movie selection for star third baseman.

The posters also have reviews from Braves reporters and broadcasters.
