The Braves announced another small signing on Tuesday, inking a split contract with left-handed reliever Danny Young.
The #Braves today signed LHP Danny Young to a one-year, split contract for the 2026 season.

Hardcore Braves fans should be familiar with Danny Young, as he made eight appearances with the club back in 2023, pitching to a very respectable 1.08 ERA with a 2.42 FIP over 8.1 innings.
Young has spent the last two seasons with the New York Mets, making 52 total appearances with a 4.50 ERA. However, his 3.25 FIP over that stretch is much more encouraging, and his 11.9 strikeouts per nine innings is impressive. He could be a dark horse for one of the final spots in a Braves bullpen that is extraordinarily wide open right now.
