"Braves Trade Marco Gonzales to Pirates in MLB Offseason Deal"
The Atlanta Braves have traded pitcher Marco Gonzales and cash to the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for a player to be named later. The deal is primarily motivated by financial considerations, as Gonzales is owed $12 million this season and is not seen as an impact starter. The cash involved in the trade is significant, potentially freeing up payroll for the Braves. The player to be named later is not expected to be a major factor in the deal.
