## Resource

The Braves are gearing up for a bullpen overhaul as Raisel Iglesias, a 36-year-old All-Star closer on a one-year deal, likely plays his final season. With Suarez as the obvious successor, the team is also eyeing 21-year-old Didier Fuentes — a rising star with a 2.01 ERA and 1.07 WHIP — to take on high-leverage roles. Fuentes, eager to learn and grow, sees bullpen time as a crucial stepping stone, even as he eyes a future as a starter. A Suarez-closer, Fuentes-setup tandem could give Atlanta the flexibility it needs — and Fuentes’ development might be best served by this path for now.
