NL East capsules: Phillies seek to close gap on Braves in division

2024 NATIONAL LEAGUE EAST CAPSULES

Atlanta Braves

2023 record: 104-58 (1st place, NL East)

KEY MOVES

He gone: OF Eddie Rosario, SS Vaughn Grissom, LHP Brad Hand, RHP Kirby Yates, RHP Michael Soroka, RHP Kyle Wright

New faces: LHP Chris Sale, OF Jarred Kelenic, OF Adam Duvall, RHP Reynaldo Lopez, LHP Aaron Bummer, INF David Fletcher

Biggest question entering Opening Day: Can seven-time All-Star Chris Sale, who has made only 31 starts over the past four seasons, stay healthy for a full season? Sale, who was acquired from the Boston Red Sox in the Vaughn Grissom deal, started 20 games with the Red Sox last season and has looked good this spring, so there's reason for optimism that the soon-to-be 35-year-old lefty can be a productive member of the rotation.
