The Braves have picked up a pitcher with links to the White Sox, though it obviously isn’t Chris Sale, nor is it Jose Quintana. Instead it’s veteran pitcher John Danks. According to Jeff Passan of Yahoo! Sports, the Braves have signed the 31-year-old pitcher on a minor-league deal.

Danks only made a handful of appearances for the White Sox in 2016 and didn’t exactly pitch well during those 22.
