Orlando Arcia Designated For Assignment By Atlanta Braves on May 23, 2025

Arcia had a slow start to the 2025 season, playing in 14 games and starting in 9 of them. His batting average was .194 with an OPS of .445. In those games, he managed 6 hits in 31 at-bats, with no home runs and only 1 RBI.

This move could open up opportunities for other players on the Braves' roster. Vaughn Grissom or Braden Shewmake might see increased playing time at shortstop. Arcia's recent stats showed he had no hits in his last game played against the Reds on May 8, 2025.
