The Atlanta Braves are eager to re-sign reliever AJ Minter, who is attracting interest from the Chicago Cubs and Texas Rangers as he enters free agency. Minter has been a dependable asset for the Braves, boasting a 2.62 ERA in 39 appearances during 2024, despite battling injuries.

With Joe Jimenez recovering from knee surgery, retaining Minter would be crucial for the Braves. Both the Cubs and Rangers also seek to bolster their bullpens, with the Rangers needing significant improvement after a 4.41 ERA last season.
