Closer Raisel Iglesias was traded from the Los Angeles Angels to the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday in exchange for right-hander Jesse Chavez and left-hander Tucker Davidson.
The move further reinforces the Braves' bullpen after the team traded reliever Will Smith to the Houston Astros on Monday for starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi.
Iglesias will likely set up Braves closer Kenley Jansen but can also fill the closer role on days Jansen isn't available to pitch.
Iglesias, 32, is signed through the 2025 season with annual salaries of $16 million in each season.
