The 41-year-old righty intends to stick around in 2025, and this will decide a few things for the Atlanta Braves

Charlie Morton has been an anchor in the Braves rotation for four seasons, but his decision to play in 2025 could make the Front Office's decision difficult.

With Max Fried likely leaving in free agency, and Spencer Strider not expected to be ready for Opening Day, the Braves really could use Morton to return. As Passan noted, he's a reliable innings-eater, and yet his 1-year contract won't prevent the Braves from signing another top-rotation starter this offseason.
