Two former Braves find new homes on minor league deals

Two former Braves have found new clubs, at least on a minor-league basis. One guy, Julio Teheran, I’m especially happy for. Teheran signed with the Padres:

Teheran had some ups and downs in Atlanta, but it’s good to see he’s still getting to play pro ball. Teheran struggled with the Angels in 2020, had one good start with the Tigers in 2021, and spent 2022 playing in Mexican and Independent Leagues. Former Brave and Phillie Johan Camargo has caught on with the Twins:

This isn’t a surprise; Camargo is a switch-hitter who can play multiple positions — someone was going to have some interest in his services. Good to see both guys getting another chance.
