It’s extremely difficult to accept, but he must resign from the contracts because of his wife’s harsh comment against the Atlanta head coach.
Infielder Matt Diaz signed a one-year contract worth $2.55 million on Saturday with the Atlanta Braves, who had released second baseman Kelly Johnson due to lack of a 2010 contract offer.
Last season, Diaz brought in $1,237,500 and hit.313 with 13 home runs and 58 RBIs.
Johnson took the batting position.224, eight home runs, and 29 RBIs; Martin Prado took over as the starting pitcher. As of right now, he can sign with any team.

Ryan Church, an outfielder, was not extended a contract by Atlanta either. In 44 games with the Braves, Church hit.260 with two home runs and eighteen RBIs.
Boone Logan and Peter Moylan, two relievers, are still available for arbitration as unsigned players on Atlanta’s 40-man roster.
ASTROS: A three-year, $15 million deal was finalized between Houston and reliever Brandon Lyon.
After playing for the Arizona Diamondbacks from 2005 to 2008, Lyon was 6-5 with a 2.86 ERA in 65 appearances for the Detroit Tigers in the previous season. The right-hander played in a career-high 73 games with a 2.68 ERA in 2007 and recorded a career-high 26 saves in 2008.

Athletics: After Oakland declined to extend a contract offer to Jack Cust in 2010, Cust became a free agent. Cust was the first player to lead the American League in three consecutive seasons since Bobby Darwin of Minnesota in 1972–74, despite hitting.240 with 25 home runs and 70 RBIs in the previous season. However, he also struck out 195 times. In 2007 and 2008, Cust made 164 and 197 mistakes, respectively.
As one of baseball’s best closers, Josh Hader typically saves his All-Star stuff for the ninth inning.
He was called upon to play in the eighth inning of a Tuesday NLDS tie game due to an unfortunate hand injury sustained by bullpen mate Devin Williams. Ready was Freddie Freeman. In Game 4 of the NLDS, the reigning MVP of the league crushed a two-out, first-pitch solo home run over the center field wall to give the Red Sox a 5-4 lead.
Will Smith, the closer for the Braves, came through in the ninth inning to help Atlanta complete a 3-1 series victory and earn a trip to the NLCS, where they will play the Los Angeles Dodgers or San Francisco Giants.
With the win, the Braves will make their second consecutive NLCS appearance; in 2020, they were defeated in seven games by the Dodgers, who went on to win the World Series. The outcome brings bitter memories of a 95-win season that included dreams of a World Series championship to the Brewers.

Devin Williams’ fractured hand is relevant.
With three All-Star starters in Brandon Woodruff, Corbin Burnes, and Freddy Peralta and perhaps the best bullpen combination in baseball in three-time All-Star Hader and Williams (who won Rookie of the Year and Reliever of the Year in 2020), Milwaukee had one of the best pitching staffs going into the postseason.
However, Williams, who acknowledged that he had consumed too much alcohol, broke his pitching hand by striking a wall while celebrating Milwaukee’s NL Central victory. He was not available for his typical spot in the eighth inning on Tuesday and was ruled out of the NLDS.
