It is believed that free agency in MLB can change the career of any baseball player. For some, MLB free agency is like a blessing, while for some, the beginning to the end of their baseball careers. Notably, Cristian Pache of the Oakland Athletics feels somewhat the same.

Earlier on Monday, when the Atlanta Braves and Oakland Athletics agreed for the five-players trade, Matt Olson joined the Braves from the A’s, while four players from the Braves, including Christian Pache, went to the Athletics.

Undoubtedly, leaving a team of world champions wouldn’t have been easy for the former Braves stars. And especially, it was even more painful for the former Braves outfielder Christian Pache.

Just like the Braves fans, Christian also found out about his trade on Monday. And the former Braves outfielder was definitely not ready to leave the World Series winners. 

Expressing himself on Twitter, Cristian said that his heart was broken. However, he thanked the Braves GM and fans. “My heart is broken. I just found out that I was traded to the A’s,” Cristian Pache said.

“I know that’s the way this business works, but I want Braves fans to know that I will be eternally grateful to him wherever he goes. Thank you for so much support, for so much love, and for being so special to me.”

While in another tweet, he also promised his new loyalty to the Athletics and assured them to bring his A game to the field when the time comes.
