"This is probably going to be it. We all talked about me going out the way I came in - being able to roll out of bed and pick up a baseball and throw it," Chavez said. "And that's how I feel still. So I feel like that's kind of unique in a way, where we don't get that option too many times when we can go home healthy....Like every year, we'll probably give it all we have, and go into coaching next season."
It continued what has quietly been a bit of a renaissance for Chavez in the twilight of his career, as the right-hander has a 2.81 ERA over 137 2/3 innings since Opening Day 2021. He struggled in brief stints with the Cubs and Angels in 2022, but has otherwise been excellent in a Braves uniform, including a 2.14 ERA in 33 2/3 innings for Atlanta's World Series championship club in 2021.
