Motte signed a minor-league contract with the Braves on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

It didn't take long for the veteran reliever to find work after being unconditionally released by the Rockies last Wednesday. Motte appeared in 30 games for Colorado in 2016, recording a 4.94 ERA and 1.52 WHIP across 23.2 innings, which were both some of the worst numbers of his career, so it's not entirely surprising that the Rockies decided to cut him loose after he failed to make the big club out of spring training. The 34-year-old is expected to report to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.
