Well, sort of.
The actual news is that the Braves announced on Wednesday a contract extension for catcher Tyler Flowers. It guarantees him $4 million in 2019 with a $6 million team option for 2020 ($2 milllion buyout).
Flowers is a Georgia native—born there, raised there, drafted (twice) by the Braves and developed in their system. They traded him to the White Sox following the 2008 season, but he later returned as a free agent. Since 2016, he’s batted .265/.366/.414 with an even stronger defensive impact and reputation. His pitch framing, for example, has saved Atlanta 58 runs since 2016, in the estimation of Baseball Prospectus.
