Danks inked a minor-league contract with the Braves in December and received the opportunity to audition for a rotation spot with the big club in spring training, but he was unable to beat out Mike Foltynewicz for the fifth starter role after getting lit up for seven runs on 14 hits and six walks over 9.2 innings in Grapefruit League play. The 31-year-old, who was out of baseball after being released by the White Sox last May, may need to prove himself in the minors with another organization before he gets another look at the big-league level. Danks hasn't turned in a sub-4.50 ERA in a season since 2011.

Danks has been a servicable left-handed arm for most of his career, so if he is able to return this season healthy and clear-headed after sitting out for most of 2016, the Braves will have gotten a relative steal here.

At only 31-years of age, there will certainly be a market for the experienced left-hander. Regardless though, he is unlikely to factor in the fantasy world.

Danks has not been good at all over the last few seasons and joined the back of the unemployment line on Friday. Danks lost all four of his starts in 2016, allowing 18 runs in just 22.1 innings for a 7.25 ERA. Even with a nice track record, it'll be hard for Danks to find another gig in the majors after his recent lack of production.
