Braves News: Jurickson Profar to Atlanta, Spencer Strider update, and more

After quite an uneventful offseason, the Atlanta Braves have made a splash and signed outfielder Jurickson Profar. He will join the club on a three-year, $42M deal. He will make $12M in 2025 and $15M in both 2026 and 2027.

Profar will take over in left field. Not only is he a solid defender, but Alex Anthopoulos called him the “second-best bat on the market.” He spent the entire 2024 campaign in San Diego, where he logged 158 games and a .280 batting average.

And before you ask, 1% of his salary will be donated to the Atlanta Braves Foundation.

The New York Mets have officially announced their two-year, $22M deal with former Brave A.J. Minter. He bid the Braves farewell via Instagram on Thursday.

The New York Yankees claimed a pair of right-handers off waivers, including Allan Winans, who the Braves designated for assignment earlier this week.

The Los Angeles Dodgers finalized their four-year, $72M contract with left-hander Tanner Scott.
