Braves Acquire Pitcher Tyler Mahle From Giants
The San Francisco Giants have traded 31-year-old right-handed pitcher Tyler Mahle to the Atlanta Braves, providing the NL East leaders with additional pitching depth.
The San Francisco Giants traded veteran pitcher Tyler Mahle, 31, to the Atlanta Braves, both Major League Baseball franchises announced late Sunday night. The acquisition brings the 6-foot-3 right-handed pitcher to the team currently holding first place in the National League East division as Atlanta prepares for the remaining stretch of the regular season.
Before the trade was finalized, Mahle recorded a 3-9 win-loss record along with a 5.13 earned run average across his outings this season with the Giants. The right-hander also registered 89 strikeouts during his time on the mound for San Francisco prior to joining the Braves' roster.
By securing Mahle, the division-leading Atlanta Braves bolster their available options on the pitching staff. The late-night announcement from the clubs confirmed the trade agreement, though additional details regarding player movement or financial compensation involved between the San Francisco Giants and the Atlanta Braves were not immediately provided in the official release.
