Per rotoworld.
Dave O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the Braves "are leaning toward bringing back" Kris Medlen (elbow) rather than non-tendering him.
Medlen is making his way back from a second Tommy John surgery and is projected to earn $5.8 million in arbitration, according to MLBTradeRumors.com. However, as good as he was for the Braves from 2012-13, they simply can't let him walk away for nothing. O'Brien says Medlen could return "perhaps on a reduced contract with incentives." The righty should be ready to rejoin the rotation early on in the 2015 season.
