After re-signing with the Padres, Michael King is no longer an option for the Atlanta Braves this offseason. There are compelling reasons to think that the Braves should be glad that they didn't sign King, but that doesn't change the reality that the number of potential starters that fit what Atlanta wants this offseason is beginning to dwindle.
We know that the Braves are still entertaining adding an impact starter this offseason, but they aren't going to force a deal or overpay for one. Alex Anthopoulos may prefer to get a pitching upgrade, but that player would have to be actually better (or close) to the Grant Holmes/Reynaldo Lopez tier of options that they already have at their disposal.
