We are less than four hours away from the MLB Trade Deadline and things are starting to churn. The Atlanta Braves are rumored to be looking to add to their pitching staff and that search may be centered on the bullpen. MLB.com’s Mark Bowman reports that the Braves are looking to add another potential closer to the mix and mentions Detroit’s Shane Greene and Pittsburgh’s Felipe Vazquez by name.

The Braves are attempting to add another potential closer before today's deadline. Think more like Shane Greene than Felipe Vazquez.
