Braves Face Key Absences, Adjust Offseason Plans

News summary

The Atlanta Braves face significant roster challenges due to injuries, notably with reliever Joe Jiménez, who is expected to be out for 8-12 months following knee surgery. His absence leaves a critical gap in the bullpen, necessitating the search for a high-leverage reliever. The Braves also need to address the potential absence of Ronald Acuña Jr. and Spencer Strider, both of whom are not expected to be ready at the start of the next season. These injuries have forced the Braves to adjust their offseason strategy, including declining Travis d’Arnaud's $8 million option to free up payroll. The team is considering internal options like Pierce Johnson and external acquisitions to strengthen their roster. With these developments, the Braves are poised to make significant moves in the offseason to remain competitive.
