The Atlanta Braves have reportedly extended a lucrative offer to Aaron Nola, potentially signaling their financial flexibility this offseason. With the recent signing of Reynaldo Lopez and only $4 million owed to him this year, the Braves may have around $20 million remaining in available payroll for the season. This could potentially allow them to make a strong bid for free agent starting pitchers such as Sonny Gray, Jordan Montgomery, Eduardo Rodriguez, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto (excluding Ohtani). It will be intriguing to see if they pursue any of these options.
