Answer: Ender Inciarte

Ender Inciarte began his MLB career in 2014 with the Arizona Diamondbacks. He came to the Braves in 2016 in a trade for Shelby Miller. The Braves sent Miller to Arizona for Dansby Swanson and Ender Inciarte. 

Inciarte became an elite defender with the Braves in center field and did more than hold his own at the plate. He did not get enough credit for being a form of stability for Atlanta during the years of their rebuild.
