Ken Giles, a veteran relief pitcher, is attracting interest from several clubs for a potential minor league deal. His notable 2019 season with the Toronto Blue Jays showcased his talent, but his recent performance with the Atlanta Braves organization has been less impressive.

In 2024, Giles struggled at Triple-A Gwinnett, posting a 6.28 ERA. Despite his challenges, the Braves have been actively acquiring depth options this offseason, indicating they have alternatives if they choose not to re-sign him.

Connor Gillispie has signed a one-year contract with the Atlanta Braves, earning $820,000 in the majors and $180,000 in the minors. The 27-year-old right-hander made his MLB debut with the Cleveland Guardians, posting a 2.25 ERA in three games.

Previously drafted by Baltimore, he had a mixed season in Triple-A Columbus, finishing with a 4.05 ERA. After being designated for assignment by the Guardians, he opted for free agency.
