What happened: Yahoo Sports published a pre-deadline outlook on the Atlanta Braves' next move ahead of the Aug. 3 trade deadline. Atlanta has spent the past two weeks connected to multiple pitching targets, including Joe Ryan and Mason Miller, as the front office looks to address rotation and bullpen depth.

Why it matters: A pitching addition matters for a club chasing playoff position down the stretch, with a bidding war for Joe Ryan already underway against Philadelphia. Miller and Sonny Gray remain alternate targets if the Ryan talks stall.

What to watch: Atlanta's front office has less than three weeks to finalize a deal before the Aug. 3 deadline passes.
