The Atlanta Braves surprised the baseball world in 2024.
Atlanta had some very bad luck this year and lost key pieces throughout the campaign to various high-impact injuries. The Braves still found a way to earn a playoff spot but didn't make a deep playoff run like the club hoped for.
The Braves will now need to look ahead to the 2025 season with that, many moves will be made. Atlanta will look to add to the roster in various ways in free agency and the trade market. The Braves also will lose some players in free agency. One player who is predicted to be on the way out of town is infielder Cavan Biggio, according to FanSided's Eric Cole.
"Cavan Biggio," Cole said. "The Braves added Biggio very late in the season as a stopgap to cover for the potential loss of Whit Merrifield, who would have just broken his foot on a foul ball. Yes, the 2024 Braves were truly cursed. Biggio had already been let go (in one way or another) by the (Toronto Blue Jays), (Los Angeles Dodgers), and (San Francisco Giants) this season before he arrived in Atlanta.
"Given that he doesn't really have a role with the Braves next season once they get healthy, expect the Braves to pass on keeping him unless he is willing to sign a minor league deal."
At one point, Biggio was an elite prospect. He was selected in the fifth round of the 2016 Major League Baseball June Amateur Draft by the Blue Jays and made his big league debut in 2019.
Things haven't worked out for the infielder since then. He hasn't been able to fully get his footing at the big league level, and he only appeared in four games with the Braves. He will be a free agent, and it would be a little surprising if he was back in town.
