The Philadelphia Phillies are in advanced talks for a reunion with their star free agent Aaron Nola. Meanwhile, the Braves have signed Reynaldo Lopez to a 3-year, $30 million contract, with plans to stretch him out as a potential starter. The Phillies are also keen on Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who has been officially posted for MLB free agency. The Yankees are showing interest in left-handed hitting Korean outfielder Jung-Hoo Lee. The Braves are reportedly among the top suitors for Sonny Gray after missing out on Nola. Reynaldo Lopez's performance against the Braves on July 31, where he recorded a five-out save for the Angels and threw 37 pitches, 23 over 99 mph and 14 at 100 mph or above, is noteworthy. The Yankees have also signed sinker-baller Yerry De Los Santos, and both the Yankees and Giants are expected to pursue Jung Hoo Lee.

Reynaldo López will prepare as a starter this winter and the Braves will stretch him out in spring training, sources tell @TheAthletic. Team will determine role at end of spring. Lopez averaged 32 GS/186 IP for White Sox in 2018-19. Potential versatility appealed to Braves.
Phillies are still looking at top starters after bringing back Aaron Nola. They have company, as at least the Red Sox, Cardinals, Braves, Dodgers and Astros are looking for an elite starter (and many more than just those teams are on Yamamoto, who’s only 25).

Yoshinobu Yamamoto will reportedly be posted today. His stats over 7 seven NPB seasons: 967.2 IP 1.72 ERA 0.915 WHIP 9.2 SO/9 6.2 H/9 4.56 SO/W https://t.co/9HxAkbrU8X

#Braves newcomer Renaldo López will be stretched out to start in spring training, to give options of rotation or bullpen. Had seasons w/ 188 & 184 innings in 2018-2019; his stuff rates higher now. He'll be 30 in Jan., will make $4M in 2024, $11M '25-26, $8M option '27/$4M buyout
