Atlanta Braves news and notes from Wednesday
Well the options appear to be dwindling for the Braves to grab a starting pitcher, as Ranger Suarez signed a big 5 year $130 million deal with Boston. That said, the buzz has been more on Framber Valdez as a free agent or someone like Freddy Peralta on the trade market for Atlanta lately, so perhaps their move is still on the table. They could plausibly go into the season with their current rotation options, particularly if the answers to their injury questions are favorable, but a quality starter really would be a phenomenal touch to an already strong offseason.
