Too bad for the Atlanta Braves.
The veteran 6-foot-6 lefty was not only an ace but something beyond an ace in 2024 for the Braves.
He was 18-3 with an .857 winning percent, 2.38 ERA and league-leading 225 strikeouts. Not surprisingly, he was voted the National League Cy Young Award winner in his first season with Atlanta.
