The Atlanta Braves are set, for the most part, when it comes to position players in the major leagues.
Atlanta's in the rare position of having a fully locked in position player core, with all eight defensive starters under team control for multiple seasons after this one.
But their first opening, coming in 2026, is at shortstop, where incumbent Orlando Arcia will be entering his age 31 season. Atlanta's holds a club option on him that would cost only $2M, and it feels like the plan will be to exercise it so that they can transition to a new shortstop.
