An Atlanta native, Olson has played the most innings among all infielders since his first full season in 2018.

His fielding percentage of .995 since 2018 ranks third among MLB infielders with at least 900 appearances.

In addition to the Gold Glove, Olson was an All-Star in the 2025 Midsummer Classic and competed in the T-Mobile Home Run Derby twice.

Olson is only the second Braves first baseman to win a Gold Glove, joining Freddie Freeman who won in 2018.

The Braves have won Gold Gloves in five of the last six seasons, totaling 16 in the last 14 years and 41 since 1992.
