The Atlanta Braves are likely to add bullpen help, and targeting Alex Vesia could solve their problem and ruin the Dodgers' day.
Writer Eric Cole argues that the Atlanta Braves should target free-agent left-handed reliever Alex Vesia to strengthen their bullpen and weaken the Los Angeles Dodgers. The piece notes that Atlanta currently lacks a dedicated left-handed specialist outside of Dylan Lee, who struggled down the stretch in the 2026 season.
Cole highlights that Vesia posted a 2.45 ERA over the past three seasons, limiting left-handed hitters to a .138 batting average in 2026. The author suggests Atlanta could offer Vesia a free-agent contract worth $8 million to $9 million annually to fill this high-leverage role.
