The Atlanta Braves have a reason to be optimistic as they approach the holiday season, with star player Ronald Acuña Junior set to have a healthy offseason and begin the 2026 season without restrictions. Acuña, known for his dynamic play, has consistently performed well when healthy, earning the Comeback Player of the Year award in 2025. His last truly healthy offseason was before his MVP campaign in 2023, and a repeat performance in 2026 could make him the biggest reason for the Braves to be thankful.

The Atlanta Braves trade for Chris Sale in 2023 proved to be a masterstroke, as the injury-prone pitcher won the Cy Young Award and earned back-to-back All-Star selections in his first two seasons with the team. Meanwhile, the Red Soxs acquisition of Vaughn Grissom in the same trade has not panned out, with Grissom likely to be traded or released after spending the entire 2025 season in the minors. The Braves gamble on Sale has paid off handsomely, making him a cornerstone of their rotation and a valuable clubhouse presence.

Sean Newcomb, a former Braves pitcher, is reportedly attracting free-agent interest, with teams considering him for both starting and relief roles. After spending most of his career in the bullpen, Newcomb could potentially return to starting, given his past experience and ability to pitch multiple innings. His strong performance with the Athletics last season, posting a 1.75 ERA in 36 appearances, is likely boosting his stock. Newcomb was with the Braves from 2017 to 2022, making 144 games, including 57 starts, and earning a World Series ring. He is expected to sign a one-year deal, but a two-year contract is not ruled out.
