With the Spring Breakout just three days away, the Atlanta Braves have announced the finalized version of the roster that will be a part of the exhibition. It was back on March 5th that the Braves announced the full 40 man roster so let’s take a look at those that made the cut and will be a part of the exhibition.
Pitchers
- Blane Abeyta, RHP (2025, AA: 12 K/9, 3.53 BB/9, 2.29 ERA)
- Garrett Baumann, RHP (2025, A+: 8.55 K/9, 2.45 BB/9, 3.40 ERA)
- Isaac Gallegos, RHP (2025, A+/AA: 8.47 K/9, 3.35 BB/9, 3.18 ERA)
- Hayden Harris, LHP (2025, AA/AAA: 13.67 K/9. 3.29 BB/9, 0.52 ERA)
- Herick Hernandez, LHP (2025, A+: 11.06 K/9, 5.92 BB/9, 3.57 ERA)
- Jhancarlos Lara, RHP (2025, AA/AAA: 13.63 K/9, 8.52 BB/9, 7.73 ERA)
- Rolddy Muñoz, RHP (2025, AA/AAA: 8.85 K/9, 4.95 BB/9, 2.85 ERA)
- Owen Murphy, RHP (2025, CPX/A+: 10.09 K/9, 1.78 BB/9, 1.19 ERA)
- Luis Vargas, RHP (2025, A+/AA: 12.05 K/9, 5.40 BB/9, 3.74 ERA)
Owen Murphy and Garrett Baumann are the two starting pitchers that make the list, while the other seven are relievers. There are several notable names not included in this list including
the likes of JR Ritchie, and Didier Fuentes who have both pitched extremely well with the big league team. The likes of Luke Sinnard, Briggs McKenzie, Cam Caminiti, Ethan Bagwell, Landon Beidelschies, Blake Burkhalter, Drue Hackenberg, Ian Mejia, and Raudy Reyes being the other names left off the final roster. Luis Vargas, however, making the team is especially nice, after he missed a good chunk of the season last year having a tumor removed from his head.
Catchers
- Archer Brookman (2025, A+: .230/.289/.299)
- Colin Burgess (2025, A: .208/.277/.292)
- Manuel Dos Passos (2025, CPX: .222/.361/.325)
The state of catching post Drake Baldwin can be seen in this grouping. Chadwick Tromp is now a regular part of the AAA/MLB team so his inclusion was not going to happen. Archer Brookman and Colin Burgess are a pair of minor league of free agents the Braves brought into the organization recently and they are at the top of the depth chart while the young Manuel Dos Passos makes the roster. Nick Montgomery not making the club is of notable note, and no Tyler Tolve is interesting. That said, catcher is clearly an area of need in the neat future for the Braves, following the graduation of Drake Baldwin.
Infielders
- John Gil (2025, CPX/A/AA: .252/.348/.366)
- Jim Jarvis (2025, AA/AAA: .249/.324/.347)
- Alex Lodise (2025, A+: .252/.294/.398)
- Cody Miller (2025, A/A+: .327/.381/.449)
- Jose Perdomo (2025, CPX: .223/.275/.270)
- Tate Southisene (2025, A: .219/.242/.297)
- Dixon Williams (2025, A: .269/.395/.462)
It’s been a while since the Braves bolstered a group of positional prospects with this many tools. It will be interesting to see where each player plays as Gil, Lodise, Miller, Perdomo, and Southisene are all natural shortstops, while Dixon is a second baseman, and Jim Jarvis is more of a utility player – so who mans third and first is definitely up for debate. Two interesting non-inclusions are Lisandro Espinoza, and David McCabe.
Outfielders
- Owen Carey (2025, A: .258/.330/.345)
- Patrick Clohisy (2025, A+/AA: .254/.335/.346)
- Isaiah Drake (2025, A/A+: .272/.342/.356)
- Conor Essenburg (DNP)
- Eric Hartman (2025, CPX/A: .240/.341/.358)
- Diego Tornes (2025, DSL: .279/.395/.402)
Much like the infield group, this group of outfielders have some of the highest collection of tools in recent Braves history. There is plus speed with Isaiah Drake, Eric Hartman, and Diego Tornes while Diego Tornes and Conor Essenburg possess some of, if not the most notable, power in the minors. Finally, Owen Carey and Patrick Clohisy and their well rounded games make up the rest of the outfield class. The most notable absence here is OF Luis Guanipa.
