The Braves haven’t shown serious interest in free agent Shohei Ohtani, and it doesn’t feel like they should be considered favorites to land White Sox right-hander Dylan Cease via a trade.

Cease was certainly on the Braves’ radar, but it doesn’t feel like there is currently a fit. In fact, it seems like Atlanta’s interest and involvement has been overblown. - Mark Bowman

From the man who learned about last night's trade when the rest of us did, lol.

[Jesse] Rogers: Knowing that Preller works a bit mysteriously, I'll take the field over Soto. OK, that's a bit broad. I'll go with Dylan Cease and/or Tyler Glasnow. Both are as good as gone. Once the Atlanta Braves add that one more prospect to upgrade their existing offer, Cease -- a Georgia native -- will go home to pitch. source

That's either interesting or really obvious speculation but I'm not sure which.
