World-class Braves Trivia question

[rico43]

Heard this one yesterday during the game. Maybe you heard the answer, but have fun.

In 2016, eight Atlanta Braves pitchers won their first major league game. One of them was today's starter, Aaron Blair. Can you name the other seven?

Another hint: none of the other seven is currently with the Braves!

What is fascinating is that they were able to trade four of them.
Gant (St. Louis, 0-0), Whalen (Seattle, 0-1), Jenkins (Padres minors, released), Cervenka (Marlins, 0-0)
Also,
Bradley (claimed by Orioles, retired May 4), Weber (claimed by Mariners, 0-0)

Damn, when did Jenkins get released? Surprised no one has picked him up and gave him a shot in their bullpen..
