Teheran named Braves' lone All-Star

ATLANTA -- As Julio Teheran neared the completion of his strong 115-pitch effort against the Red Sox on April 25, he reacted to the botched defense of a sacrifice bunt attempt by snapping his glove in an agitated manner after receiving the ball back from catcher A.J. Pierzynski.

This one simple reaction signaled Teheran may have indeed regained that same aggressive attitude he had possessed before enduring a frustration-filled 2015 season.

More importantly, Teheran has consistently produced results that provide tangible proof he has indeed distanced himself from last year's miseries and restored his status as one of baseball's most productive starting pitchers.
