The former Atlanta Braves right-handed pitcher shared what happened that led to his offseason signing with the Baltimore Orioles.
The Braves had three marquee free agents coming into the winter and have now watched all three — Max Fried, Charlie Morton, and A.J. Minter — sign with other clubs.
ATLANTA — New Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Raudy Reyes won’t turn 17 until August and has a fastball that’s touched 102 mph. Even in this velocity-obsessed era in baseball, when triple-digit heaters aren’t the rarity they were years ago, topping 100 mph at age 16 remains stunning.
The Atlanta Braves could turn to an old veteran, who recently told The San Francisco Chronicle that he intends to pitch in 2025, to fill their bullpen void.
The Atlanta Braves are addressing the persisting needs to their starting rotation. They are predicted to land a World Series pitcher.
The Braves have yet to agree to a guaranteed major league deal with a free agent, and as Spring Training rapidly approaches, fans are getting anxious.

Profar, one-time Texas infielder, now 32, broke into the big leagues at 19 but has been hampered by lack of playing time and uncertainty over how, when, and where he should be used. According to media reports, he had been pursued by several other clubs – including San Diego and Philadelphia – seeking to beef up their batting orders.
Sugiura: Thus far, the story of the Braves' offseason could be written on a Post-it Note, and probably a small one.
The once highly touted Texas Rangers prospect is coming off a career year with the San Diego Padres, where he hit .280 with 24 home runs and 85 RBIs, earning an All-Star nod and a Silver Slugger.
🏀 The ugly: The Hawks shot 6-for-38 from three in their 114-104 home loss to the Pistons — a franchise low on that many attempts. They’ll aim to improve tonight against the Raptors (7:30 on FanDuel Sports Southeast).
