Braves News: Danny Young signed, Spencer Strider review, and more
"The Atlanta Braves made a minor move (literally) on Tuesday morning, signing left-hander Danny Young to a one-year, split deal. The 31-year-old was previously with the New York Mets, who recently outrighted him, giving Atlanta the opportunity to pick him up. He did undergo Tommy John surgery in May, so he won't be on the mound at the beginning of the season."
"This won't be Young's first stint with the Braves. He was previously with the team in 2022, where his roster status was ever-changing. Should he bounce back from Tommy John, hopefully Young will provide a solid arm to be used in the majors when needed. Our 2025 season in review series continues with Spencer Strider. Down on the farm, we take a look at Cooper McMurray, Mason Guerra, Rolddy Munoz, and Kade Woods."
"The Toronto Blue Jays have reportedly agreed to a three-year, $30M deal with right-hander Cody Ponce. The deal is pending a physical and has not yet been announced by the team. The Los Angeles Angels signed right-hander Alek Manoah to a one-year, $1.95M deal. He was previously with the Braves, who opted to non-tender him. The Houston Astros have agreed to a one-year contract with KBO pitcher Ryan Weiss. Per report, he is guaranteed $2.6M."
Danny Young signed a one-year, split deal with the Atlanta Braves after being outrighted by the New York Mets. The 31-year-old underwent Tommy John surgery in May and will not be available at the start of the season. Young previously spent time with the Braves in 2022 when his roster status changed frequently. The 2025 season review notes Spencer Strider and minor-league players Cooper McMurray, Mason Guerra, Rolddy Munoz, and Kade Woods. Other moves include Cody Ponce reportedly agreeing to a three-year, $30M deal with the Blue Jays pending a physical; Alek Manoah signing a one-year deal with the Angels; Ryan Weiss joining the Astros on a one-year, $2.6M guarantee; Casey Schmitt undergoing wrist surgery requiring eight to ten weeks of recovery; and the Blue Jays officially announcing a seven-year deal with Dylan Cease.
