Braves sign RHP Reynaldo Lopez to three-year, $30 million deal

The Atlanta Braves announced on Monday that they’ve signed right-handed pitcher Reynaldo Lopéz to a three-year, $30 million deal.

Lopéz, 29, joins his fifth MLB team ahead of his ninth season and is set to $4 million in 2024, and $11 million in the following two seasons, with a $8 million club option or $4 million buyout for 2027.

In 2023, the Dominican-born pitcher logged a 3-7 record with a 3.27 ERA over 68 appearances between the Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Angels, and Cleveland Guardians. Lopéz also collected six saves while striking out 83 batters over 66 innings of work.

López has a 39-49 record and a 4.32 ERA in eight seasons. He has made 97 career starts but has made only one start since 2021 and worked only in relief last season.
