The Atlanta Braves and Seattle Mariners agreed on a trade that will send outfielder Jarred Kelenic, left-hander Marco Gonzales, first baseman Evan White and cash considerations to the Braves in exchange for right-handers Cole Phillips and Jackson Kowar.
The Braves announced the move on Sunday night.
Kelenic made his major league debut in 2021 as one of the top prospects in baseball. He struggled through his first two years but put together a strong campaign in 2023, slashing .253/.327/.419 with 11 home runs and 49 RBIs while posting a 2.0 bWAR.
Kelenic, 24, is arbitration eligible in 2025 and will hit free agency in 2029.
