Chris Martin is coming back. 2yr/14m.

Probably means that Greene or Melancon won't be returning.

Greene and Melancon are both under contract until after the season

They can non tender Greene. They can also trade either although they will have to have to attach something to Melancon.

I just don't see them paying

Melancon 14m
Smith 13m
Martin 7m
Greene 6-7m

They are already a team that doesn't spend a ton so I don't see them investing a lot in for 4 relievers.

I didn't see Culberson getting non-tendered.

I thought they should of moved on from Camargo before him.

Culberson can play anywhere and is a much better fit in the clubhouse and a fan favorite as well. I thought at 1.8m he was almost a lock to stay.

Meh. At least it's only 1 year. Hopefully they still have money for Donaldson.

At least Hamels could start a game in the post season. Julio wasn't even gonna be on the roster until Martin got hurt.

I thought they overpaid a little but they probably had to give a higher average to get him on a 1 year deal instead of 2-3 years.

He kind of replaces Keuchel more than Julio in my mind. Part of his role is going to be to mentor Fried being a veteran lefty.

I hope they still have money for Donaldson. I'd assume that they do because 3B is the biggest hole they have.

I miss Charlie, I'm surprised the Braves aren't retaining him.

Braves looking solid this year.

If they get Donaldson back and he plays like last year they are definitely better. They still have that hole to fill at 3b and they could improve on a Markakis/Duvall platoon in LF. Ender isn't that great either in CF, his defense wasn't even that good last year and his bat is awful. Pache will probably be up at some point but he's so young I wouldn't expect much offensively.

They've apparently shown interest in Rendon but I don't think they have a real chance. They shown they are willing to spend some money but I don't think they would do the length of contract Rendon will want. They are really in a hole is they don't get Donaldson though. Riley really struggled after his hot start and Kris Bryant would cost them a decent amount of money and prospects for maybe only 1 year if he wins his grievance. Moustakas is off the market.
