Braves trade for Tyler Mahle from Giants before deadline

The Atlanta Braves acquired veteran right-handed pitcher Tyler Mahle from the San Francisco Giants on August 3, 2026. In exchange, the Giants received minor league reliever Anthony Molina. Mahle, who has struggled with a 5.13 ERA this season, has shown improvement recently, posting a 3.79 ERA over his last seven starts. The Braves aim for Mahle to bolster their pitching rotation, which has faced injury issues. Molina, with a 6.89 ERA in his Major League appearances, will seek to find success in San Francisco's pitching-friendly environment.
