The Atlanta Braves made two bullpen changes this week; one was hardly noticed while the other was met with disbelief. I’ll clear up the easy one first.
MLBTR reported late Friday night that the Braves had acquire reliever Jedidiah Custer Jed Bradley from the Brewers for the ubiquitous PTBNL or cash. The now 26 year old lefty was the first round selection (15th overall ) of the Brewers in the 2011 draft. At that time Baseball America’s ($) draft report said some nice things about him.
. . . While he’s not generally thought of as overpowering, Bradley knows how to miss bats.
