The Braves have signed closer Will Smith to a three-year contract, the team announced. The three guaranteed years will pay Smith $39MM, and Atlanta has a $13MM club option for 2023. That option contains a $1MM buyout, as per The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal (Twitter link), bringing the total value of the deal to $40MM. Smith is represented by CAA Sports.
Atlanta loses its third highest pick, in which they stand to get it back if Donaldson signs with another club.
AND he was fabulous in Pursuit of HappinessAWESOME SIGNING FOR AA! I'm cautiously optimistic about the Braves bullpen in 2020.
