The Braves have acquired starter Jaime Garcia from the Cardinals in exchange for prospects, ESPN’s Mark Saxon reports. The Cardinals exercised Garcia’s $12 million club option for the 2017 season last month. He can become a free agent going into the 2018 season. Garcia, 30, was able to pitch a full season for the first time since 2011, finishing this past campaign with a 4.67 ERA and a 150/57 K/BB ratio in 171 2/3 innings. - See more at: http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2016/12/01/braves-acquire-jaime-garcia-from-the-cardinals/
