Todd Coffey agreed to minor league deal with Atlanta, adding to Braves surfeit of pitching this spring. Coffey had 1.93 ERA at AAA in 2014.

The youth movement continues.

This is starting to feel desperate.
If we sign every reliever, then all the other teams will have to throw their starters 9 innings every game, and they'll all get hurt. Brilliant!
Smart move by Hart. He's basically building the team around Fredi. We'll have so many relief arms to burn that we can tap into our reserves by May.
Forever Fredi

I guess this blows the food budget surplus projected after Laird and Harang left.

This is comical at this point. Still don't mind bringing these guys in for a tryout though.

This is starting to feel like the line from the guy in Major League. "This guy here is dead."

But ... but ... we can TRADE him!
Will Liberty open up the purse strings to feed all these fat boys? :)
I also think what we're seeing here is, the Braves attaining the pinnacle of frequent flyer miles status--err Frequent Buyer Status. With all the tommy johns we've purchased the last decade, Dr. Andrews has basically said "you can redeem rewards as much as you want now, unlimited rewards". Buy all these arms, have Fredi abuse them all, keep the cycle going.
Forever Fredi
Well, damnit, I want Kenny fckin Powers.

Will he be with the team all season or will he only be around for . . . . . wait for it . . . . . a cup of coffee?
