It's been a difficult year for the Atlanta Braves, who currently sit 14 games below the .500 mark at 63-77 after Wednesday's road win over the Chicago Cubs. Atlanta isn't in as bad of a rough patch as they were about a month ago, but at this point, the team is just treading water until the season mercifully reaches its conclusion at the end of this month.
On Thursday, the Braves took to social media to announce a slew of moves ahead of this weekend's home slate against the Seattle Mariners, including releasing a veteran pitcher.
