Monday is the deadline for major league teams to either exercise or decline any club options for players. The Atlanta Braves currently have five players with options for the 2024 season including Charlie Morton and Eddie Rosario. The New York Post’s Jon Heyman reported Sunday that the Braves are leaning towards declining the $9 million option on Rosario.
Braves are expected to decline Eddie Rosario’s $9M option by tomorrow. Close call and nothing official but that’s the expectation.

Rosario of course was a postseason hero for the Braves during their 2021 run to the World Series.
