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.

Though he will not be on the Opening Day roster, Spencer Strider has completed four bullpen sessions this winter and should have a normal spring.

MLB News:

The Toronto Blue Jays recently signed outfielder Anthony Santander to a $92.5M deal. However, $61.75M of that is deferred money. Click here for a full breakdown of the layout.

Major League Baseball has added two minor rule changes ahead of the 2025 season.

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.

Clayton Kershaw may still have a future in Los Angeles.
