Episode 894
Atlanta Braves GM Alex Anthopoulos gambled on bargain-bin relievers in 2025 and watched his bullpen collapse from elite to mediocre. The result? A 4.19 ERA that ranked 19th in baseball and derailed championship hopes.
Jake Mastroianni breaks down why the Atlanta Braves cannot repeat this mistake, providing an exhaustive analysis of available free agent closers and setup men. From elite options like Edwin Diaz and Robert Suarez to potential buy-low candidates like Devin Williams, the episode covers every arm that could transform the Braves bullpen. The discussion also tackles Reynaldo Lopez's uncertain role and addresses a painful question for Atlanta fans: Will Freddie Freeman's postseason heroics with the Los Angeles Dodgers lead him to the Hall of Fame wearing Dodger blue instead of Braves red?
Discover which relievers could save the Braves' 2026 season and why Freeman's legacy hangs in the balance.
