While the Atlanta Braves have money to spend this offseason, this front office's philosophy under Alex Anthopoulos has consistently been to avoid the top names on the market and look for value. Sometimes this works out great (trading for Chris Sale comes to mind) while other moves such as the ill-advised bet on Alex Verdugo did not. The goal is to make any moves that won't cripple the Braves' payroll if they don't pan out, but which also have some upside. As it turns out, one free agent starting pitcher fits the bill almost perfectly.
