## Resource

The Braves are on the hunt for pitching reinforcements before the August deadline, as injuries plague their rotation and key players like Spencer Strider sit out again. With Chris Sale shining but others underperforming, GMs are eyeing high-impact targets — including Mets’ Clay Holmes (a rehabbing closer with coaching ties) and Tigers’ Tarik Skubal (a top-tier ace who could vault them into World Series contention). But Skubal’s price tag might be steep, fitting the Braves’ usual preference for veteran signings or internal development — like Kevin Gausman, a durable, expiring All-Star who fits their strategy. If they can’t land a starter, bullpen upgrades like AJ Minter (now with the Mets) could be the answer — bringing experience and reliability to a shaky relief corps.
