MLB.com's Mark Feinsand predicts the Atlanta Braves to bring back veteran starting pitcher Charlie Morton to provide much-needed stability in their rotation.
The Atlanta Braves face a difficult offseason this winter, specifically for their starting pitching rotation. The team's ace, Spencer Strider, is still recovering from Tommy John surgery last season. Atlanta is watching left-handed pitcher Max Fried and veteran righty Charlie Morton head into free agency as well.The Braves are likely to be very aggressive in bringing Fried back, but to this point, they haven't been vocal about bringing Morton back.Still, MLB.
'Max Fried seems likely to move on from Atlanta, but the 41-year-old Morton doesn't seem ready to retire, setting up a return to the Braves,' Feinsand wrote. 'Atlanta has Chris Sale, Reynaldo López, and Spencer Schwellenbach atop the rotation, but Spencer Strider won't be ready to start the season following last year's Tommy John surgery. Newly acquired Griffin Canning will also factor into the rotation.'Bringing Morton back isn't a bad idea for Atlanta.
