5. Drew Smyly
Smyly is an often-forgotten piece of Atlanta's 2021 World Series run. A big piece of this is the fact the veteran was struggling at the end of the year only managing to pitch 7.1 innings in the postseason. Smyly was a fallback option and not a piece of postseason rotation. The veteran's struggles make it easy to forget his 11-4 regular season record and 126.2 innings pitched. Smyly was never a great starter but ate important innings and kept the games close enough for a loaded offense to carry the team.
The next three seasons have been spent with the Cubs, two of the three years were solid results. This makes it slightly surprising the starter hasn't found a landing spot. If he wishes to continue pitching it wouldn't be a surprise to see a minor league deal.
6. Robbie Grossman
Part of Atlanta's answer to 2022 outfield woes was bringing in Grossman. The veteran outfielder was inconsistent at the plate and didn't factor into the team's plans by the end of the season. While the veteran has had a solid career it wouldn't be surprising if this is the end of the road.
Adam Duvall and a handful of superior offensive options remain in free agency. Grossman is likely only becoming an option if a team is in a truly desperate injury situation. The lone season in Atlanta wasn't particularly memorable and not a reunion the team should consider.
These being the remaining options on the market speak to a busy free agency period that has left few viable pieces remaining. If the Braves hope to improve their current roster it will have to be finding answers either via trade or within their own system. Barring another surprise release we've likely seen the last of Atlanta reunions in 2025.
