Why Red Sox's projected $60 million hurler 'could become superstar' with Braves

The Atlanta Braves are very good at what they do.

Though Atlanta is a big-market team, they don't bully their way to the top like the Los Angeles Dodgers or New York Yankees. They're a player development machine, and they're also the masters of locking their young stars up on long-term extensions.

In recent seasons, the Braves have also begun building pitching staffs of veteran reclamation projects, breathing new life into the careers of Charlie Morton, Chris Sale, and Reynaldo López. And there's one obvious candidate to become the next rejuvenated Braves starter on the free-agent market.
