Tuesday marked a busy day for the Atlanta Braves, who kicked things off early this morning by extending starting pitcher Chris Sale. The extension will run through the 2027 season, where his salary will jump up to $27M. The deal also includes a $30M club option for 2028.
The nine-time All-Star had a productive 2025 in Atlanta, where he recorded a 2.58 ERA through 125.2 frames. He missed a couple of months due to a fractured left rib cage, but upon his return, he remained effective.
For the Braves, this extension secures their ace for another year and is a crucial move for a team seeking to return to the postseason.
