McCutchen Back with Braves on Minor Deal | Atlanta Braves News

Veteran five-time All-Star Andrew McCutchen, once an MVP and now a designated hitter, is back in baseball on a minor-league deal with the Braves — a low-risk gamble to see if the 18-year pro can still swing it. After being released by the Rangers, McCutchen chose to keep playing, bringing his respected veteran presence to spring training in Florida before heading to Triple-A Gwinnett. The Braves hope he can offer mentorship and maybe even a spark off the bench — while McCutchen fights to extend his legacy. Can he recapture his magic? Only time will tell.
