Freddie Freeman, the unofficial leader of the Atlanta Braves, has made his assessment on where he thinks his team needs to be at the end of the year. According to him, it's "World Series or nothing" for his squad in 2020.

Believe it or not, Freeman is only 30 and is a ten-year veteran for the Braves since being drafted in 2007. He knows what a winning environment is like, having shared a locker room at the beginning of his career with both Chipper Jones and John Smoltz. It's safe to say Freeman knows what he is talking about when it comes to judging potential.

The Braves have a strong side, despite the loss of Josh Donaldson. Atlanta acquired a big outfield bat in Marcell Ozuna, they have the same elite, young core from last season, and still have enough depth pieces to make a late-season push in one of the toughest divisions in baseball.

Freeman seems to have high expectations for his team and rightfully so after being one win away from the NLCS in 2019. Freeman has yet to reach the World Series in his decade-long career. Will 2020 be the year he finally gets his ring?
