Yesterday was an eye opening day across the MLB as dozens of players that could become Braves Targets, many above average, became free agents after being non-tendered rather than offered arbitration.
For the Braves, it was an odd day as it almost seems like Alex Anthopoulos did the exact opposite of what was expected:
- Tendered Johan Camargo a $1.36MM contract
- Tendered Grant Dayton a $900K contract
- Tendered Luke Jackson a $1.9MM contract
- Non-tendered Adam Duvall
Combine the above 4 decisions with the declining of Darren O’Day‘s option, and it’s definitely a head scratcher that has left many fans confused.
