Kelvin Herrera || RHP – Kansas City Royals

Like the San Diego Padres, the Kansas City Royals are also having a crappy season. At 13-30, the Royals are flirting with last place in the AL Central. Therefore, Kansas City might be a little willing to part ways with some of their relievers. One such player the Braves’ could narrow in on is Kelvin Herrera. Herrera has a brilliant 1.15 ERA on the year as well as a 0.77 WHIP. All in all, Herrera might be one of the best options out there for Atlanta.

If the Braves are able to lock up any of the names on this list, they should be a shoo-in for this year’s playoffs. Taking Atlanta to make the postseason can be quite lucrative for fans willing to make some MLB futures predictions. If you want to bet on baseball futures, taking the Braves to make the postseason can be an alluring proposition!

Herrera would help the team’s case greatly in the rest of the 2018 season.
