While the trades for Jarred Kelenic and Chris Sale generated the biggest headlines, the Braves have been busy this winter fortifying their bullpen. Atlanta re-signed Pierce Johnson and Joe Jimenez before free agency began. They traded for lefties Aaron Bummer and Ray Kerr, and also inked hard-throwing righty Reynaldo López to a three-year deal. Lopez will presumably compete for a spot in the rotation during Spring Training, but could also see some time as a reliever.
The Braves need to add a few position players to the mix and fill out their bench between now and Opening Day.
