Brent Suter Traded to Braves as Atlanta Strengthens Bullpen Before MLB Deadline

  • On Monday, the Atlanta Braves acquired left-handed reliever Brent Suter from the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for infielder Nacho Alvarez Jr., bolstering their bullpen ahead of the 6 p.m. trade deadline.
  • The Los Angeles Angels continue their rebuild with little chance of competing in the coming years, while the Braves sought to reinforce their pitching staff for the stretch run.
  • Featuring a 4.12 ERA across 41 games this year, Suter provides the Braves a veteran presence for the Postseason with an 81st percentile ground-ball rate and 94th percentile hard-hit rate.
  • Alvarez will likely receive consistent playing time in Anaheim with over 200 career at-bats, while Suter replaces Danny Young as the Braves' third left-handed reliever.
  • The Braves have been active ahead of the 6 p.m. deadline, recently acquiring starting pitcher Tyler Mahle, outfielder Lane Thomas, and reliever Bailey Falter to strengthen their roster.
