The Atlanta Braves reportedly released former All-Star infielder Orlando Arcia, per Grant McAuley of 92.9 The Game. The move comes shortly after the Braves released another former All-Star in outfielder/first baseman Garrett Cooper.
Arcia, 30, joined the Braves during the 2021 season. In 2023, Arcia was selected to the All-Star team and ended up slashing .264/.321/.420 to go along with a .741 OPS.
In 14 games played in 2025, however, Arcia struggled, hitting just .194 with a .445 OPS. Atlanta ultimately decided to move on from the versatile infielder.
Arcia has played at the MLB level since the 2016 campaign.
