This marks Baldwin’s first major league season. He made his debut at the Braves’ Opening Day game in San Diego against the Padres on March 27. At just 24 years old, Baldwin is regarded as the Braves’ top prospect for the 2025 season.

De La Cruz began his professional career in 2021 with the Miami Marlins and joined the Braves as a free agent in December 2024. Over the course of his MLB career, he has tallied 427 hits and 58 home runs in more than 400 games.
Enyel De Los Santos, a right-handed pitcher for the Atlanta Braves, threw in the third inning during a spring training game against the Toronto Blue Jays in North Port, Fla., on Saturday, March 1, 2025.
De Los Santos was briefly assigned to the Gwinnett Stripers before signing as a free agent with the Braves in December 2024. He was invited to spring training in January as a non-roster starter and had his contract selected by the Braves in March.
Héctor Neris, a right-handed pitcher, made his MLB debut in 2014 and joined the Braves as a free agent in March for spring training. After being selected from the Gwinnett Stripers, Neris has accumulated 741 strikeouts in his career.
