A mainstay in a bullpen that (like most bullpens) has a lot of year-to-year turnover, A.J. Minter had a very A.J. Minter 2023 and was again one of the better relievers in the league.
How Acquired
The Braves drafted Minter with the 75th overall pick in the 2015 MLB Draft. He made his debut in 2017 and has been a key part of the Atlanta relief corps nearly every season since. Ahead of the 2023 season, Minter and the Braves agreed on a one-year, $4.3 million deal to avoid heading to salary arbitration.
