MLB Winter Meetings Recap: Braves Acquire Jarred Kelenic

The Braves and Mariners made some noise Sunday evening, with ESPN's Jeff Passan reporting that Atlanta acquired outfielder Jarred Kelenic, starting pitcher Marco Gonzales, and first baseman Evan White in exchange for pitchers Jackson Kowar and Cole Phillips. It was largely a salary dump for the Mariners. Seattle rids itself of Gonzales's $12 million owed in 2024 before his 2025 club option. And White is due $15 million over the next two seasons after signing a six-year, $24 million deal before his 2020 major league debut.
