Atlanta Braves, an early look at an imperfect team: Pitching

What could the Atlanta Braves do to improve rotation?

My first thought goes directly to Mike Foltynewicz but that is more wish-casting than reality.  I would have loved to see the Braves let Folty take his knocks at the big-league level in a year that likely won’t really matter but I’m sure they know what they’re doing putting him at Gwinnett.  However, I will say that I think the Braves are missing a power arm in their rotation, and Folty does fit that bill assuming that he can get his walks under control.  If Folty improves his walk rate, I’d like to see him inserted into the rotation mid-May. Another candidate to watch out for would be Manny Banuelos, but he’s in the same boat as Folty and needs to improve his walk rate. He’s left-handed therefore the Braves might choose to replace Stults with another left-hander to break up the rotation.
