The Atlanta Braves came into the Winter Meetings with one contract already done. They inked Raisel Iglesias to a one-year deal worth $16 million long before the meetings began. Now, as everyone heads home from the Orlando get-together, Atlanta has bolstered the bullpen again. How did the Braves fare on the three-year, $45 million deal they gave Robert Suarez on Thursday? Here are the grades for both sides.

Suarez hit free agency after four years as the San Diego Padres closer . At 35 years old, he opted out of the final three years of his deal, which would have paid him just over $27 million. Opting out worked for him, earning nearly $20 million extra on this deal. But were the Braves the right place to go?
