"The Atlanta Braves and the rest of Major League Baseball are gearing up for the international signing period, beginning January 15th. This time around, the Braves have over $6.2M to spend."
The international signing period begins January 15, and the Atlanta Braves have more than $6.2 million in bonus pool money available. The Braves are linked to prospects Jose Manon and Starling De La Cruz as potential targets during the window. A dip in the number of effective starting pitchers occurred in 2025, creating uncertainty about rotation depth and performance expectations for 2026. Teams may respond by prioritizing durable, innings-eating arms, re-evaluating pitching development, and allocating resources across free agency, trades, and prospect promotion. The Los Angeles Angels signed veteran reliever Kirby Yates to a one-year, $5 million contract.
