There are two big deadlines: The deadline for agreements was 1:00 p.m. ET and the players and teams that didn\u2019t reach an agreement by that point will exchange salary figures at 8:00 p.m. ET tonight.<\/p>\n<p id=\"NoTGkz\">The Atlanta Braves went into today\u2019s proceedings with three candidates for arbitration: Jarred Kelenic, Dylan Lee and <s>Eli White<\/s>. As of right now, the Braves have only come to an agreement with Jarred Kelenic, as the two parties agreed on a $2.3 million contract for the 2025 season. Robert Murray of FanSided reported it first and the Braves confirmed the news shortly afterwards.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Braves?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Braves<\/a> today signed OF Jarred Kelenic ($2.3 million) to a one-year contract for the 2025 season.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Atlanta Braves (@Braves) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Braves\/status\/1877407751631978859?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 9, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p id=\"mIJAd1\">We still haven\u2019t heard any news on Lee or White, so keep it locked in and we\u2019ll update this post once any further news comes out.

Apparently Eli White wasn\u2019t arbitration-eligible after all, so that appears to be the end of Atlanta\u2019s business as far as arbitration in 2025 is concerned.<\/p>\n<p id=\"OqcrCj\">Jarred Kelenic will be coming into this season looking to rebound after he never quite got his footing during his first season in Atlanta. He eventually finished with a .231\/.286\/.393 slash line, with a wOBA of .29 and a wRC+ of 86 over 118 games \u2014 all of which was down compared to his final season with the Mariners. Meanwhile, Dylan Lee will be entering into this season looking to continue being a handful for opposing batters to deal with. Lee had an ERA- of 51 and a FIP- of 76 over a career-high 59.2 innings in 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atlanta\u2019s two (no, not three) arbitration-eligible players avoid trial by coming to an agreement at the deadline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":25042,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-25041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
