Such a man is Dallas Keuchel, a lefthanded sinkerballer who fits the mold of previous Braves stars Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine. Although Anthopoulos is a close-to-the-vest guy who disdains rumors until they become fact, it’s an industry-wide secret that he’d like to bring Dallas to Atlanta. He just spent $23 million for Donaldson and another $2 million on catcher Brian McCann, another free agent. Keuchel would form a formidable left-right punch atop the Atlanta staff with fireballer Mike Foltynewicz, an All-Star for the first time in 2018. Because Donaldson and McCann have one-year contracts and Teheran’s tenure in Atlanta may be nearing its end, Atlanta might be able to afford Keuchel by deferring some of the money it will owe him.
