The Atlanta Braves fortified the back end of their bullpen Thursday, agreeing to terms with free agent pitcher Robert Suarez on a three-year, $45 million contract, per multiple reports.
Jeff Passan of ESPN was first to report the agreement.
Suarez was an All-Star closer for the San Diego Padres in 2025 — and the best reliever still available on the market after Edwin Diaz, Raisel Iglesias, Devin Williams and Ryan Helsley all found new homes in free agency.
Suarez will join Iglesias to form perhaps the most formidable 1-2 punch in the National League East — if not all of baseball — in 2026.
