7/07/25	Dodgers-Braves blockbuster trade proposal brings $58 million star to LA. The Los Angeles Dodgers will assuredly be on the prowl for bullpen help at this year's trade deadline. The sellers are still sorting themselves up, but the Dodgers might jump at the opportunity to pilfer a reliever from a team that's been one of their chief playoff rivals in years past: the Atlanta Braves. Braves closer Raisel Iglesias has been pretty subpar this year too, fitting in with the Dodgers' theme. In a Monday article, Zach Pressnell of FanSided suggested that Iglesias could be a good fit for the Dodgers in a possible deadline blockbuster.

6/18/25	Is Braves Reliever Raisel Iglesias Returning to Form?. One player the Braves need to do that is relief pitcher Raisel Iglesias. The right-hander experienced an historic 2024 season, but this year, Iglesias owns a 6.00 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 28 appearances. Over his last three outings, though, Iglesias has been nine up and nine down. On Tuesday versus the New York Mets, he retired three consecutive batters with a runner on second base in the 10th inning. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/braves/raisel-iglesias-mlb-...
6/17/25	Braves Encouraged to 'Bench' $58 Million Asset. Right-handed relief pitcher Raisel Iglesias could be on his way back. The Atlanta Braves former closer has pitched two scoreless frames since losing his ninth-inning role with the team following a blown save on June 5. Instead, Miller argued the Braves should "bench" the reliever. On Tuesday, Miller included Iglesias on a list of eight MLB players that "should be benched."

6/14/25	Braves Raisel Iglesias Looking Like Old Self in New Role. Raisel Iglesias' last two outings for the Atlanta Braves have delivered results we were more accustomed to getting from him. Friday's appearance saw him pitch another scoreless inning, striking out a batter and allowing a base hit. A key difference between these two innings pitched compared to his previous 23 calls from the bullpen is that they came in the eighth inning. Iglesias had been the Braves closer for more than two seasons before being pulled from the role earlier this month. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/braves/analysis/braves-rais...
6/13/25	Braves could field trade calls on veteran pitcher despite 6.48 ERA, per insider. As the Atlanta Braves try to recover from their massive slide, it's only natural that teams will start inquiring about trades. The Braves don't want to sell, but they might have no other choice. It's not as though Atlanta would conduct some sort of roster teardown, but they've got some veterans on expiring contracts who would be of interest to any contending teams. One of those veterans, closer Raisel Iglesias, has had a dismal season to this point, which is disappointing on many levels. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/atlanta-braves...
6/10/25	Braves Facing Raisel Iglesias Decision After Craig Kimbrel Debacle. The Atlanta Braves are slumping, Raisel Iglesias is faltering, and the clock is ticking. Is Atlanta headed for a 2026 reset instead of a 2025 postseason push? Source: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/braves-facing-raise...
6/06/25	Diamondbacks' wild comeback vs. Braves draws Torey Lovullo truth bomb. It hasn't been a week full of good news for the Arizona Diamondbacks. But that didn't take away from their stunning comeback against the Braves. Arizona's Eugenio Suárez hit a go-ahead, two-run double off Raisel Iglesias to cap a seven-run ninth inning rally. The stunning turnaround gave the Diamondbacks an 11-10 win Thursday, capping a sweep of the three-game series. Source: https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/arizona-diamondbacks/...
6/05/25	Braves blow six-run ninth-inning lead to Diamondbacks in historic loss. Eugenio Suárez hit a go-ahead, two-run double off Raisel Iglesias to cap a seven-run ninth inning, and the Arizona Diamondbacks stunned the Atlanta Braves 11-10. Source: https://sports.yahoo.com/article/braves-blow-six-r...
5/30/25	Braves could land Orioles' All-Star flamethrower in trade deadline blockbuster. The Atlanta Braves have plenty of people to blame for their 26-29 start, and their bullpen has a handful of culprits. Closer Raisel Iglesias hasn't pitched well at all, which is unfortunate given that he'll be a free agent this winter. On the whole, Atlanta's bullpen has -0.2 fWAR, which is the third-worst mark of any team in Major League Baseball. Clearly, the Braves will need Iglesias (5.91 ERA) to step up.

5/26/25	Braves-Athletics trade pitch sends All-Star flamethrower to Atlanta. As the Atlanta Braves look to re-establish themselves as contenders, the bullpen appears to be a major question mark. All-Star closer Raisel Iglesias has dropped off significantly since 2024, and he hasn't had many reliable firemen in front of him. Braves relievers are 10-for-20 in save opportunities; only the Chicago White Sox have converted a lower percentage. The Braves will undoubtedly have relief pitching on their trade deadline shopping list. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/ca/mlb/atlanta-braves...
5/24/25	Braves Legend In Raisel Iglesias' Corner After Latest Blown Save. Raisel Iglesias gave up another home run in the Atlanta Braves' 2-1 loss to the San Diego Padres on Monday. Chipper Jones said everyone goes through their ebbs and flows and he would still take Iglesias in any big moment. When looking at the larger sample size while with the Braves, Jones has the stats to back up his case. In his 152 appearances heading into the 2025 season, he had a 1.96 ERA in a Braves uniform.

5/15/25	Cardinals Could Trade $81 Million Pitcher To Loaded NL Contender. The Atlanta Braves need to add relief pitching this season. Bleacher Report's Joel Reuter recently listed the Braves' biggest need as the closer spot ahead of the trade deadline. "After years as one of the best closers in baseball, Raisel Iglesias is off to an ugly start this season, converting just 6-of-9 save chances with a 6.06 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 17 appearances," Reuter wrote. With a hole like this on the roster, the Braves could look to upgrade the position in the biggest way possible. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/cardinals/st-louis-cardinal...
5/13/25	Atlanta Braves Make History By Extending Bizarre Streak of Close Games. Atlanta Braves fans might have to get their blood pressure checked after what's gone down over the past week. Despite leading the Washington Nationals 3-1 in the top of the ninth inning on Monday night, the Braves suffered a blown save from Raisel Iglesias. It took a walk-off single from Alex Verdugo for Atlanta to pull out the 4-3 win. The Braves have now alternated between one-run wins and one-run losses for seven games in a row dating back to May 6.

5/06/25	Braves could target $30 million Padres All-Star to bolster bullpen. The Atlanta Braves have gotten off to a slow start in 2025. One area that they could look to improve in is the bullpen. Closer Raisel Iglesias is struggling. Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller listed Robert Suarez as a surprise trade candidate and noted that Atlanta could be on the hunt for a closer-type arm. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/atlanta-braves...
5/05/25	Braves aren't close to Dodgers' level, but they have time to get there. When Raisel Iglesias struck out Austin Barnes, the sellout crowd at Truist Park breathed a collective sigh of relief. The Braves finally got the best of the Dodgers. It took everything they had to protect a 4-0 lead, deploying their best relievers, making several impressive defensive snags and ultimately leaving the potential tying run stranded at third after Iglesias fanned consecutive hitters. After five straight head-to-head losses, the Braves defeated the Dodgers in their last meeting of the regular season Sunday. Source: https://www.ajc.com/sports/atlanta-braves/braves-a...
5/04/25	Braves urged to trade for Reds $4.5 million All-Star after surprise demotion. It's been a disappointing season on many fronts for the Atlanta Braves, and the bullpen deserves its fair share of the blame. All-Star closer Raisel Iglesias has not been up to par, and the rest of the bullpen behind him hasn't been any better. Atlanta's relievers own a 3.94 ERA, which ranks 15th in Major League Baseball, but their -0.1 combined fWAR ranks 27th. According to one baseball writer, the Cincinnati Reds' latest high-profile roster decision could provide the answer. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/atlanta-braves...
4/27/25	Arizona's Eugenio Suárez becomes 19th player in MLB history to hit 4 HRs in game. Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eugenio Suárez homered in his first four at-bats against the Atlanta Braves on Saturday night. Suárez’s fourth homer tied it 7 in the ninth inning off Braves closer Raisel Iglesias. He’s the 19th player in MLB history to hit four homers in a game and first since J.D. Martinez accomplished the feat — also for the D-backs — in 2017. The 33-year-old third baseman hit a solo shot in the second, a two-run homer in the fourth, and two more solo drives in the sixth and ninth. The first three came off Braves starter Grant Holmes. The right-hander was taken out of the game following Suarez’s third homer, which traveled 443 feet to center. Suárez has 10 homers this season.

4/20/25	Yankees' Max Fried loses no-hit bid vs. Rays when official scorer changes decision in 8th inning. Last May 11, Fried pitched seven hitless innings for Atlanta at the New York Mets' Citi Field and was removed after 109 pitches in a 4-1 win. Joe Jiménez worked around a pair of walks in the eighth before Raisel Iglesias retired the first two batters of the ninth. J.D. Martinez homered just over the wall in right field on the next pitch off Iglesias. Source: https://www.startribune.com/yankees-max-fried-has-...
3/19/25	Braves sign nine-time All-Star closer Craig Kimbrel to minor league deal. The Braves are set to open the season with 35-year-old right-hander Raisel Iglesias as their closer. Iglesias had 34 saves in 38 chances with a 1.95 ERA last season. Source: https://sports.yahoo.com/article/braves-sign-nine-...
