After a strong two-month stretch and a solid playoff run, Tyler Mahle wants to return to the Atlanta Braves.
Following their exit from the postseason, Mahle expressed interest in returning to the team, as he is now a pending free agent.
“For sure,” Mahle told reporters when asked about coming back to the Braves. “It’d be crazy for anyone not to want to be here. This place is awesome, and there’s no other way to put it. It’d be crazy not to want to play here.”
Mahle was the top acquisition for the Braves at the trade deadline. In 18 starts with the Giants, he recorded a 5.13 ERA.
