Jon Heyman did mention speculatively that the Braves might be a team interested in Max Scherzer this offseason, and that is a name that I have thought on myself this offseason. The Braves do seem to like the late career veterans that they can get on short term deals to avoid the massive risk that comes with large long term pitching contracts in free agency. Scherzer hasn\u2019t been his formerly dominant self for the past two seasons and has dealt with injury, but he has been serviceable and would be a good presence for some of the Braves\u2019 younger pitchers.<\/p>\n<p id=\"YBklCN\"><strong>Braves News<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"WLJSWP\">Former Braves\u2019 first round pick Braden Shewmake was DFA\u2019d by the White Sox after they acquired Tyler Gilbert in a trade with the Phillies.<\/p>\n<p id=\"Ifyqnf\"><strong>MLB News<\/strong><\/p>\n<p id=\"FoPVQg\">Jon Heyman reported on a Bleacher Report livestream that Max Scherzer may sign in the near future and speculated that the Braves might be a team interested in signing him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atlanta Braves news and notes from Wednesday<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":23008,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
