The end of the regular season is busy for every single MLB team, but it was particularly busy for the Atlanta Braves. In addition to all of the usual housekeeping that comes at season's end, the Braves have had to manage the retirement of Brian Snitker as well as a ton of late season waiver claims which were clearly an attempt to get a head start on the roster machinations coming this offseason. Lost in the shuffle, unfortunately, is that the Braves made a pretty interesting international signing.

Normally, most international free agents sign very shortly after the IFA signing period opens in January.
