An opening to a possible bullpen solution for the Atlanta Braves?

So as we all know, the lone trade deadline has come and gone, so no more trades obviously. The Waiver wire will have players come and go, but it will be hard for the Atlanta Braves to have a chance to claim anyone due to their record being so good. So it might be time to get creative and fix these bullpen issues.

Yes, I’m talking about the “Opener” Strategy that the Rays started and made use of starting last season. Other teams have tried it as well, including the Brewers in the postseason last year.
