But along with the team's interest in Gray, Marino also said that Eduardo Rodriguez was another name to watch for Alex Anthopoulos to sign. MLB insider Michael Marino echoed other rumblings throughout the league that the Braves are heavily invested in the starting pitching market. He also might not be coming to Atlanta alone. Now 34 years old, he figures to be the perfect veteran addition for a contender such as the Braves, so their interest has always been completely sensible. Gray was phenomenal for the Twins in the 2023 season, posting a 2.79 ERA (third-best in baseball) and a 1.15 WHIP. He would make perfect sense in the rotation given the presence of Spencer Strider, Max Fried (for 2024 at least), Charlie Morton and even Bryce Elder. Maybe the most loose-lipped rumor in free agency thus far has been the Atlanta Braves' interest in veteran right-hander Sonny Gray. MLB Rumors: Braves could sign Sonny Gray and Eduardo Rodriguez
