"Iglesias was among notable options available on the open market and reportedly drew interest from the Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays, in addition to other teams. According to Francys Romero, Iglesias received contract offers from the Dodgers and Blue Jays that were in the neighborhood of his eventual deal with the Braves: Per sources, Raisel Iglesias received offers from the Dodgers and Blue Jays worth around $16 million, but ultimately chose to return to the Braves."
"Iglesias has been with the Braves since getting traded by the Los Angeles Angels during the 2022 season. That came while the right-hander was in the midst of a down season after signing a four-year, $58 million contract. Iglesias put together a strong close to the 2022 campaign and continued to pitch well for the Braves over the next two years."
Raisel Iglesias signed a one-year, $16 million contract with the Atlanta Braves after drawing interest and comparable offers from the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays. Iglesias joined the Braves via a midseason 2022 trade from the Los Angeles Angels following a down stretch on a four-year, $58 million deal. Iglesias finished 2022 strongly and pitched effectively for the Braves over the next two seasons. He struggled early in 2025 with home runs allowed but regained form from June onward, posting a 3.21 ERA, 3.31 FIP, 0.95 WHIP and 29 saves in 34 opportunities.
