5/10/24 Jarred Kelenic's Citi Field debut is coming — with rival Braves. Jarred Kelenic's Citi Field debut has been a long time coming. The Mets' first-round pick in 2018, and sixth pick overall, was back at the ballpark in Queens with the Braves on Friday for the first time since he was a prospect just out of high school. At the time, he expected Citi Field to be his future home. Jarred Kelenic thought he'd be playing at Citi Field every day, until he was traded to the Mariners. Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports “I definitely thought I'd be playing here [with the Mets],'' Kelenic said before the Mets' 4-2 loss to the Braves on Friday night. “I never thought I'd get traded. It was in my head that this place was home.'' But about six months after the Mets drafted him, Kelenic

5/06/24 Braves' Jarred Kelenic Got His Cleats From Unlikely Source. The Seattle Mariners' decision to trade Jarred Kelenic to the Atlanta Braves this offseason came as quite a surprise given the apparent up-and-coming status of both the Mariners and Kelenic. Regardless of the why of it all, the Braves were more than happy to add Kelenic to their loaded lineup. Atlanta went 20-12 in the first month of the season. Kelenic hasn't quite found his swing and is still hunting for his first home run of the year, but he's batting a perfectly fine .274 in 26 games played.

5/01/24 Jarred Kelenic, Braves bid to salvage finale vs. Mariners. There were no reports of water coolers being harmed after Jarred Kelenic struck out to end Tuesday's game in Seattle. Batting ninth for the Braves provides less stress than he faced in Seattle, where the former first-round pick never reached expectations after being the centerpiece of a December 2018 trade that sent Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz to the New York Mets.

3/20/24 Is It Time to Panic About Jarred Kelenic?. Is It Time to Panic About Jarred Kelenic? Kelenic has a .071 batting average during Spring Training. Author: Kyle Richardson Mar 20, 2024 12:12 PM EDT When the Atlanta Braves traded for Jarred Kelenic , they knew that they were taking on a player who has a lot of talent, but he needs some work. Kelenic spent the first part of his big-league time as a member of the Seattle Mariners, making his debut with them in 2021. He had a .181 batting average in 2021, a .141 batting average in 2022, and a .253 batting average last season. It was apparent that he needed a change of scenery. He and the front office did not get along well in Seattle, so the move to Atlanta could help his mental a lot. Kelenic
