He achieved an impressive 2.64 ERA, with 69 strikeouts in 58 innings, demonstrating a high ability to generate missed swings (34.6%) and a ground ball percentage of 56.0%.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Challenges and Recovery<\/h2>\n\n\nIn the following two seasons, injuries impacted his performance. During 2024, Hamilton was out for three months due to a strain in his right side. In the past campaign, he pitched 40 innings with an ERA of 4.28, finishing the last two months in Triple-A Scranton\/Wilkes-Barre.\n\nThe non-guaranteed contract suggests a minor league agreement or a split contract, allowing Hamilton to receive Major League salary only when he is on the team&#8217;s active roster.\n\nWith this addition, the Braves seek to strengthen their bullpen for the upcoming season, relying on the recovery ability of a pitcher who has already proven his worth in crucial moments.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ATLANTA \u2013 The Atlanta Braves have reinforced their bullpen with the signing of right-handed pitcher Ian Hamilton to a non-guaranteed one-year deal, the club announced this Friday.
