Chris Sale signs multi-year extension with Atlanta Braves (Zoom Presser)

I was an idiot and accidentally deleted the earlier thread from the Braves Twitter post lol but here’s the zoom presser they just posted!
I really like this move. AA hates deferred money so we basically took that from 2039 and put it to use for 2025.
He looks good in a Braves hat, although it’s hard to look bad in a Braves hat…
…looking at you, Melky Cabrera, you fucker.
I know he has some injury concerns and this is just “on paper”, but look at our rotation:
Fried
Strider
Sale
Morton
Elder
Sprinkle in 6th starts with AJSS, Waldrep, Vines, Ynoa, and Ian
Adding another LH arm is huge and it’s just a bonus this is someone who *used* to be an ace. Sale is going to get better weather here in ATL and won’t have the stress on his arm as someone who has to carry the rotation (especially with our bullpen).
I absolutely love our team going into this year. I hope we get great health from everyone.
