Disappointed for sure.Finished the season at 72 90 . Just a four win improvement over last year. I had hoped for better. Some of these young pitchers need to come through next year.
Braves GM John Coppolella resigns amid MLB probe into international signing rules violations
The Braves announced Coppolella's resignation Monday, citing a "breach of Major League Baseball rules regarding the international player market." Gordon Blakeley, a special assistant to the GM who was the team's international scouting chief, also has resigned.
Coppolella's surprising resignation came just two years and one day after he was promoted to GM and signed a four-year contract. John Hart, the Braves' president of baseball operations, will perform GM duties until the team hires a replacement for Coppolella.
Sources confirmed to ESPN's Jerry Crasnick that multiple team executives have filed complaints with the commissioner's office recently over Coppolella's conduct, and that MLB is investigating Coppolella for a number of infractions in areas beyond the international realm.
One source told Crasnick that the breach of etiquette regarding the international player market could be just "the tip of the iceberg." Yahoo! Sports, which first reported the scope of the investigation Monday, also reported that the probe includes Atlanta's domestic draft practices.
