The Braves are clearly in need of bullpen help and as the franchise has been wont to do, they’ve decided to turn to a familiar face when it comes to getting that help. For us fans, there’s plenty of sentimental value here as well as the team has managed to bring Jonny Venters back into the fold.
The Atlanta #Braves today acquired LHP Jonny Venters from the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for an international signing slot.
Venters, 33, went 1-1 with a 3.86 ERA (6 ER/14.0 IP) in 22 games, one start, for Tampa Bay this season.
