Braves announce initial player pool for 2020 season | Charlotte Observer

The Atlanta Braves have released their initial player pool for the 2020 season. These are the players who will be eligible for the Braves throughout the 60-game campaign.

Pools include those currently on the 40-man roster and additional players who could be selected or promoted to the big-league club later. The maximum pool size is 60, though most teams' first lists left room for additions.

In the Braves' case, their initial pool included 56 players, 17 of whom are non-roster invitees. The list featured 30 pitchers, seven catchers, 12 infielders and seven outfielders. They can fill the four open spots at any time.
