• 2024 Braves Season in Review: Aaron Bummer

Not even astonishingly-bad BABIP luck could keep 2024 from turning into a bummer for this guy. Good left-handed relievers should be cherished, and Aaron Bummer fits the bill in that regard. The Atlanta Braves picked him up in a trade in November 2023 and despite the fact that it took five players leaving in order for the Braves to bring him in, it ended up being a pretty lopsided trade in favor of...2024

2023
"He got one out in that frame before he eventually bowed out and handed the game over to Jesse Chavez with a man still on base."

"5M salary, the Cubs would give themselves some room to upgrade their bullpen — a unit that has lost Jesse Chavez and Justin Wilson to free agency while gaining no one this offseason — and hopefully not experience much of an offensive drop-off, Sharma notes."

2018
"The Rangers are in agreement on a contract with veteran right-hander Jesse Chavez, reports Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports (Twitter links)."

2017
"Jose Bautista blasted a three-run home run off Jesse Chavez to break a 5-5 tie in the 13th inning, and the Blue Jays held on for an 8-7 comeback win in Friday night's series opener at Angel Stadium."
