Braves primed to lure $65 million reliever to the East Coast

The Atlanta Braves have the aging but still superb Raisel Iglesias as their primary fireman but appear to be in the mix to sign one of the top bullpen arms still available this winter.

David O'Brien of the Athletic notes that the Braves are a team that "lost two top setup men and hasn’t spent any big money yet this winter, a team that has a serious high-leverage lefty need in its bullpen."

O'Brien makes that reference with an eye on reliever Tanner Scott, who was traded from the Miami Marlins to the San Diego Padres last season and currently awaits on the free-agent market.
