The Atlanta Braves may be on the market.

The Braves and Red Sox have agreed on a deal that would ship shortstop Edgar Renteria to Atlanta in exchange for Braves third-base prospect Andy Marte, ESPN's Peter Gammons has learned.

After flopping as Atlanta's closer and losing his job less than two months into the season, Dan Kolb was traded by the Braves back to the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday for right-hander Wes Obermueller.

The Atlanta Braves moved to add depth to their pitching staff on Wednesday by acquiring righthanders Lance Cormier and Oscar Villarreal from Arizona in exchange for catcher Johnny Estrada.

Rafael Furcal's price tag continues to rise with two teams now offering more money than the Braves.

The Atlanta Braves finalized a $37 million, three-year contract with Chipper Jones on Friday that guarantees the third baseman an additional $15 million and saves the team $6 million in 2006 salary, money that could be used to re-sign Rafael Furcal or pursue a top closer.

WFAN has learned that free-agent pitcher Kyle Farnsworth has reached a tentative agreement to sign with the New York Yankees.

Kyle Farnsworth has opted for the Yankees' offer to be a well-paid setup man over what Braves general manager John Schuerholz said was a three-year offer to be Atlanta's closer.
