As the Atlanta Braves look for starting rotation help, it couldn’t hurt to look into some options they missed out on at the trade deadline.
Bleacher Reports’s Time Kelly released a list of nine fresh trade ideas ahead of the Winter Meetings. For the Braves, he proposed they acquire starting pitcher Erick Fredde from the St. Louis Cardinals.
No proposed deal was included in any of the trades.
Kelly likes this move because it would guarantee the Braves some experience in their rotation that will also give them consistent innings.
“The Braves specifically need some certainty in their rotation,” Kelly wrote.
