Pitchers and catchers will report later this week to Disney’s Wild World of Sports complex as the Atlanta Braves prepare to embark on the 2019 season. While the major focus has been what didn’t happen during the offseason, the Braves have an interesting mix of players who will return this season.
Much of the intrigue of the spring will center on the pitching staff. Over the next week we will be breaking down the spring roster and will highlight some of the decisions the team will have to make as things currently stand.
Barring an unforeseen trade or free agent signing, the rotation appears largely set with the only real question as too who will open the season as the team’s fifth starter.
