The Atlanta Braves announced via Twitter this afternoon that they have acquired right-handed pitcher Josh Collmenter from the Chicago Cubs and right-handed pitcher Joe Wieland from the Seattle Mariners.
Interesting you say? Well, Braves General Manager John Coppolella has done it again. How he’s influencing other GM’s to do these trades is the bigger question.
The Braves will send cash to the Cubs and a player to be named later to the Mariners.
