Braves Re-Sign Ray Kerr Royber Salinas To Minor League Deal

The Braves have re-signed left-hander and to minor league deals, according to the transaction trackers on the pairs at MLB.com. According to , the Braves have brought left-hander into the organization on a minor league deal. Kerr and Salinas were both non-tendered by the Braves prior to last weeks deadline, but the duo will now return to the organization as non-roster depth. Kerr began his big league career with the Padres and posted solid numbers for San Diego in 2023, with a 4.33 ERA and 4.18 FIP in 27 innings that saw him strike out an excellent 30.3% of opponents. That relatively small sample of succe s was enough to convince the Braves to trade for him last winter, and the club took on the final year of s underwater contract with San Diego in order to facilitate the deal. Unfortunately, Kerr struggled to a 5.64 ERA in 10 early season Peyton Burdick Jersey appearances before undergoing Tommy John surgery back in June. Now that hes back with Atlanta, hell be able to rehab with the organization as he eyes a po sible second-half comeback in 2025. As for Salinas, he only joined the Braves organization earlier this month after being claimed off waivers from the As. Its not Salinass first stint in the organization, however, as he actually signed out of Venezuela with Atlanta as an international amateur. After spending the first years of his pro career with the Braves, Salinas was traded to the As as part of the deal prior to the 2023 season. The right-handers two year sojourn to Oakland saw him struggle to establish himself in the upper minors. After struggling to a 5.48 ERA in his first taste of Double-A action last year, he saw improved results (including a 3.68 ERA) in a repeat of the level this year but was torched to the tune of seven runs in 6 1/3 Triple-A frames. Looking ahead to 2025, Salinas figures to serve as non-roster depth for the clubs bullpen, which currently stands to be without after the lefty hit free agency earlier this month and after the right-hander underwent surgery that will cause him to mi s at least the majority of the 2025 campaign. That role of non-roster depth also figures to apply to Ingram, who spent the 2024 season shuffling between four different organizations at the Triple-A level. In 51 2/3 innings of work at the level acro s the affiliates of the Giants, Mets, Rangers, and Cardinals, Ingram posted a solid 3.66 ERA while striking out 23.7% of opponents. The southpaw received his only big league exposure in 2023 as a member of the Angels. While he had impre sed with a 2.95 ERA at the Double- and Triple-A levels that year, he was shelled to the tune of an 8.44 ERA in 5 1/3 frames during his first cup of coffee in the majors. Now more than a year removed from that frustrating debut, Ingram figures to look for an opportunity to break back into the big leagues with Atlanta next season. Trayce Thompson Jersey
