Travis d'Arnaud: Free agent after option declined
Atlanta declined Travis d'Arnaud's $8 million club option for 2025 on Monday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.President of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos said last month that the team planned to exercise d'Arnaud's option, but evidently feelings changed since then. The emergence of catching prospect Drake Baldwin could have played into the club's decision, as Baldwin is viewed as nearly major-league ready and could potentially be paired with Sean Murphy in 2025. D'Arnaud, who turns 36 in February, should be able to land a starting job somewhere after slashing .238/.302/.436 with 15 home runs over 99 games in 2024.

Braves' Travis d'Arnaud: Option will be picked up
Atlanta president of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos said Friday that the team plans to exercise Travis d'Arnaud's $8 million club option for 2025, Grant McAuley of 92.9 The Game Atlanta reports.Between that and Sean Murphy's $15 million salary, Atlanta will be paying a healthy $23 million to its catching duo in 2025. D'Arnaud usurped Murphy as the club's preferred starter down the stretch this season and finished with a .238/.302/.436 batting line and 15 home runs in 2024. He and Murphy could share the catching duties pretty evenly in 2025, but the latter might also reclaim the starting job if he rebounds from a career-worst .636 OPS.
