The Atlanta Braves have signed outfielder Bryan De La Cruz to a one-year contract worth $860,000 in the majors and $180,000 in the minors. This move provides the Braves with additional outfield depth as Ronald Acuña Jr. recovers from knee surgery.

De La Cruz, who recently became a free agent after the Pittsburgh Pirates did not extend a contract offer, has had a mixed performance in his major league career, hitting .253 with 58 home runs and 208 RBIs over four seasons.
