Nearly two weeks after appearing in his first All-Star Game, Braves third baseman Austin Riley has agreed to terms on the most lucrative deal in franchise history.
Atlanta broke the news Monday afternoon in a press release announcing Riley, 25, has signed a 10-year, $212 million contract extension, which will keep him with the club through the 2032 season. The deal also includes a $20 million club option for the ’33 season, and will net Riley a $15 million salary in ’23 followed by $21 million in ’24, and $22 million over the remainder of the contract.
