In the lead-up to the 2020 season that we are crossing our fingers and toes will actually happen, we are previewing the prospects and lesser known names in the Braves’ player pool. We had already covered the big name guys in our roster previews months ago, so don’t expect to see write-ups on Albies or Soroka in this space. This series is more about getting to know the prospects and other names that could see time in the big leagues as members of the player pool, but aren’t locks for it.
Joining the pitching staff this year is eight year veteran Chris Rusin who hasn’t pitched much since 2018 when he threw just 54.
