The Atlanta Braves have a great deal of confidence in their rotation. The team believes they have the starting pitching necessary to make a deep postseason run this year. And while Atlanta views its starters as the key to playoff success, Braves manager Brian Snitker knows the team has something truly special in closer Raisel Iglesias.
“He’s been about as good as I’ve been around, in my tenure here as a third-base coach (and) managing. We’ve had some Hall-of-Fame quality closers here, and he’s right there with all those guys, what he’s doing right now,” Snitker said of Iglesias per The Athletic’s David O’Brien on X.
