In a surprise move, the Braves have won the Dallas Keuchel sweepstakes! The Braves beat out teams like the Yankees, Cardinals and Twins for the services of the former Cy Young winner.
The terms of the contact were not disclosed, but Braves GM, Alex Anthopoulos, did state in a release that the contract was for one year, with a player option for a second.
Manager Brian Snitker said that there is a slim chance Keuchel will be ready for the opening series at Philadelphia. However, Keuchel will be ready for the opening series at home against the Cubs.
To make room on the roster, the Braves will send LHP Max Fried to Gwinnett when Keuchel is ready to join the rotation.
