The Atlanta Braves have extended the contracts of Fredi Gonzalez and Frank Wren.
Wren and Gonzalez were entering the final years of their contracts. Braves president John Schuerholz simply said he wanted the deals to be done as soon as possible.
Gonzalez has a long history with the Braves as a third base coach under manager Bobby Cox. He started his managing career with the Florida Marlins where he served for 3½ seasons.
Wren has been in the Braves organization since 1999 and replaced Schuerholz as general manager after the 2007 season.
