MLBTR reports that The Braves have reached agreement on a one-year deal with Jordan Walden to avoid arbitration, according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com (via Twitter). Walden was projected to earn $1.5MM by MLBTR contributor Matt Swartz. Financial terms of this agreement are not yet known.

Walden, 26, came to the Braves in a November 2012 deal that shipped Tommy Hanson to the Angels. The right-hander had a 2.47 ERA and limited opponents to a .194 batting average in 47 appearances from April through August, but stumbled in the final months of the season. Walden's final line was a 3.45 ERA with 10.3 K/9 and 2.7 BB/9.

Walden is represented by Don Mitchell of ***lord Sports Management, as shown in the MLBTR Agency Database.
 
Because I'm a liberal, I censored the W-A-R word.

We are no longer allowed to talk about the statistic W-A-R and that's why W-A-R-lord was censored.

Peace be to all my bruthas and sistas.:rock:
 
Could walden be the closer if we moved kimbrel?
Has closer experience. Wonder why he went to head of the class (after Venters who was kinda automatic/easy). Seems to me that Freeman, Kimbrel, Johnson would have had more immediate interest to FO.
