Dylan Cease looms as a perfect fallback plan for the Atlanta Braves after missing out on Max Scherzer in free agency, but Alex Anthopoulos might not be able to meet the San Diego Padres' asking price.
The Braves recently made a move to improve their outfield but still have a ways to go to build a World Series-caliber roster and it starts with starting pitching. Here are three names Alex Anthopoulos should consider.
Former Atlanta Braves reliever AJ Minter has love for the franchise, but he proved Alex Anthopoulos right by signing with the Mets.
The Atlanta Braves broke their offseason silence last night, inking a deal with All-Star outfielder Jurickson Profar. The signing was first reported by Jeff Passan, and the Braves later announced the details of the contract.
Training is fast approaching, and the Atlanta Braves have yet to sign a single player to a guaranteed major-league contract. Meanwhile, Alex Anthopoulos has a number of critical pieces walk right out the door without much resistance.
The Atlanta Braves finally made a noteworthy deal on Thursday with the signing of outfielder Jurickson Profar. The contract answered the outfield question, but there are still a few holes in the lineup up for grabs.
A possible target for the Atlanta Braves in the starting pitcher market signed a contract with the Toronto Blue Jays according to MLB insider Jon Heyman.
While David O’Brien of The Athletic speculates the Braves are trying to reset their luxury tax penalties this year, another Atlanta beat reporter is suggesting otherwise.
The Braves still need to bolster their pitching staff, with key pieces of the bullpen and rotation leaving in free agency. They were linked to Ryne Stanek by MLB.com’s Mark Bowman, but the veteran reliever returned to the Mets.
The Atlanta Braves were reportedly interested in Ryne Stanek, but Alex Anthopoulos wouldn't do more than the bare minimum to keep the righty from returning to the rival New York Mets.
This offseason for the Atlanta Braves has been shocking. After hinting at significant adds, Alex Anthopoulos has only lost players this winter. Today, another Brave chose a division rival in free agency.
So far, GM Alex Anthopoulos has kept costs low while barely touching the roster. Anthopoulos’ gamble is based on the returns of Ronald Acuna Jr., Austin Riley and Spencer Strider carrying the Braves over the hump in 2025.
