Braves $20 million All-Star 'intends' to pitch in 2025, per insider

Will one Atlanta Braves veteran end up finding another opportunity this winter?

Longtime Braves starter Charlie Morton logged a 4.19 ERA in 2024 but is now 41 years old. He made $20 million as a member of the Braves in 2024 and now is a free agent. Could he return to the Braves?

Nothing can be ruled out at this point, although that does seem unlikely. There were rumblings that Morton could hang up his cleats after 17 big-league seasons, but he reportedly "intends" to pitch in 2025, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan.
