"MLB's Winter Meetings: Braves Face Uphill Battle"

As Major League Baseball's Winter Meetings begin, the Atlanta Braves have made some moves but still have work to do. They have signed extensions with Pierce Johnson and Joe Jimenez, as well as a three-year deal with Reynaldo López. The team has also made trades to clear some money from the books. However, the Braves still need to address their starting rotation and left field position. They were linked to Aaron Nola and Sonny Gray before they signed elsewhere, and Dylan Cease is a possible trade option. The team will also need to manage their finances as they approach the luxury tax range. The Winter Meetings will also include the Hall of Fame ballot results, the Draft Lottery, and the Rule 5 Draft.
