Diego Tornes started his pro career with a bang. While his next pro home run will be his first, he showed the coveted combination of power and speed in the DSL. He's one of 10 prospects we're excited to watch on the Florida backfields: buff.ly/1pmdsMj

Sawyer stepping up to Rome is good news, he's done a nice job in Augusta the last couple years. Congrats to former Rome strength coach Julian Rip who moves on to be the Strength and Conditioning Coordinator for St. Louis. Big fan of Nestor Perez too, good leader and high baseball acumen.

Ozzie. We love him.

Very interesting. Harris is exceptionally good at locating his fastball, but there has been some question how his stuff would translate to the bigs given that neither the sweeper nor the splitter were more than change-of-pace offerings to get back to the FB. A cutter may play off his FB better.

NEWS: Reliever Dylan Lee has won his arbitration hearing against the Atlanta Braves. He filed at and will receive $2.2M this season, while the team countered with $2M.

Old friend alert.

So... just how retired is Charlie Morton?

NEWS: The Atlanta Braves have catcher Jonah Heim in camp today. Has a career .258 average/105 wRC+ vs LHP and is someone I've speculated about for a while that the Braves might bring in for platoon duties opposite Yastrzemski and as an upgrade behind Drake Baldwin

2B Kyle Farmer assigned to Atlanta Braves.

Fantastic.

The Braves’ non-roster invite list tells you more than you think. Who can force uncomfortable decisions, who is depth, and who didn’t get invited at all. Full spring breakdown ⬇️

Actuals: IF: English, Gil, Jarvis, Lodise, Schunk, Waddell, Williams OF: Azócar, Gamel, Hicklen, Keirsey C: Tromp, León, Camargo P: Ritchie, Carrasco, Hernández, Karinchak, Guerra, Murphy, Pérez, Pope, Scott Clearly they don't want to run out of players as occasionally happened last spring.

It’s amazing to me that a regular thing happening these days with pathetic guys who can’t get laid is for them to alert the media about it.

They should call it something like "Sports South" or of the like.

#Braves have signed SS Jorge Mateo to a one-year deal. He was one of the options I identified in this morning's newsletter as a potential bench piece as a Nick Allen-esque defender with fantastic speed and outfield versatility.

Get Dansby back, apparently the club needs another sage cleaning. Also a shortstop.

Fact check: true

Additional signings from yesterday: - Efrailin Caminero, RHP - Geowin Gomez, RHP - Matthew Luna, RHP - Jorwin Pulido, C - Durban Arnedo, IF - Luis Fortunato, IF - Osmar Torrealba, OF Gomez and Arnedo are both Colombians, reflecting Atlanta's scouting push there over the last few years.

Quick Braves signing recap (source: BA): - Jose Mañon (1.5M), 6'2" 175lb 17YO SS, plus runner, plus arm, should be able to stick at SS, line-drive swing - Starling De La Cruz (1.2M), 5'10" 180lb 17YO CF, advanced bat for his age, fast hands/swing, good power despite size, plus-plus runner [1/2]

Happy International Signing Day to everyone who celebrates.

NEWS: The #Braves traded LHP Ken Waldichuk and INF Brett Wisely to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for cash considerations or a player to be named later.

Reliever Tyler Kinley returns to Atlanta: on 1-year, $4.25 million deal. Atlanta’s bullpen could be one of the deepest in MLB

DaShawn Keirsey Jr., who was let go by the Twins in November, signed a minor league deal with the Atlanta Braves. Keirsey was a fourth-round pick in 2018 and spent eight years in the org, going from being a marginal prospect to playing 80 games with the Twins. Good dude, too.
