Atlanta Braves outright Chase Whitley to open 40-man roster slot

If the news that the Atlanta Braves outrighted Chase Whitley makes you ask, “who?” you aren’t alone. Whitely hardly made himself a household name this year.

Whitley Came up as a starter with the Yankees and pitched two seasons in New York before being claimed by the Rays. They used him mostly in relief where he was serviceable if not spectacular.

The led the Braves to claim him off waivers last December along with a flood of other pieces cast off by their respective teams that the Braves hoped might turn into something.
