Braves blockbuster trade proposal cuts ties with ‘playoff hero’ for $22 million vet

The Atlanta Braves might look to repeat their savviest move from last year again this winter.

In December 2023, the Braves swung a blockbuster trade to bring in then-seven-time All-Star Chris Sale from the Boston Red Sox. Sale was coming off of a down season but found his form again with Atlanta and went on to win the National League Triple Crown with a good chance for his first Cy Young Award this year.

Scouring the trade market, the Braves might have a chance to land a similar return with a proposal from Bleacher Report’s Zachary Rymer by swapping Ian Anderson to the Arizona Diamondbacks for Jordan Montgomery.
