Braves Add Veteran Power with McCutchen | MLB News

The Braves are loading up on veteran power, signing 39-year-old MVP Andrew McCutchen to a minor league deal—just weeks after also bringing in 40-year-old Carlos Santana. McCutchen, recently released by the Rangers after a dismal season, brings elite pedigree, including his 2013 NL MVP with Pittsburgh, and over 330 homers in his career. Manager Walt Weiss calls him a respected leader who’ll mentor younger players. The moves come as Atlanta leads the NL East, while they’ve also moved on from Rowdy Tellez and recalled pitchers Molina and Young, continuing their roster reshuffle.
