Braves’ top starter Teheran ready to ‘do the right things’
Julio Teheran will make a modest $3.3 million in this, the third year of a six-year, $32.4 million contract he signed before the 2014 season. While still being paid similar to what a back-end-of-the-rotation starter makes on some large-payroll teams, Teheran is the questioned ace of the Braves staff.
And he says it’s time to act like it both on the field and in the clubhouse, which at spring training includes a lot of pitchers and pitching prospects who are several years younger than him.
