Hoy Jun Park - Dealt to Atlanta Park was traded from the Red Sox to Atlanta on Friday in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations.
Impact Park was dealt from the Pirates to the Red Sox in late November and will now be on the move again, joining Atlanta after less than a month with Boston. Park appeared in 23 games with the Pirates last season, producing a .216/.276/.373 slash line with two homers, six RBI, seven runs and a stolen base over 51 at-bats. The 26-year-old will likely start the season with Triple-A Gwinnett, but he'll be a top candidate for a call-up at some point this summer.

Mitchell Tolman - Latches on in Atlanta Tolman signed a minor-league contract with the Braves on Friday, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact The deal does not include an invitation to spring training. Tolman, 28, had a .775 OPS with 11 homers in 2022 at Triple-A Columbus in the Guardians organization. He'll give the Braves some utility depth.

Ehire Adrianza - Back in Atlanta as NRI Adrianza signed a minor-league contract with the Braves on Friday, which includes and invitation to spring training, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact Arianza was a decent super utility guy for the Braves in 2021 and they wound up re-acquiring him at the 2022 trade deadline from the Nationals. It seems manager Brian Snitker has an affinity for the 33-year-old, although Atlanta will hope they don't have to use him too much next season.

Matt Adams back with Washington Nationals after missing 2022

Joe Hudson - Finds work with Atlanta Hudson signed a minor-league contract with Atlanta on Dec. 5.
Impact Hudson will provide organizational catching depth for an Atlanta club that features a new No. 1 catcher heading into 2023 in Sean Murphy, whom the club acquired in a three-team deal with the Athletics and Brewers earlier this week. Travis d'Arnaud is expected to begin the season as Murphy's top backup, so unless either of the two backstops are sidelined at any point during the upcoming season, Hudson is unlikely to surface in the majors. Hudson has spent the entirety of the past two seasons at the Triple-A level since seeing action in nine games with Seattle in 2020.

Sean Murphy - Traded to Atlanta Atlanta acquired Murphy from the Athletics on Monday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Oakland's return for the catcher isn't yet clear. Murphy slashed .250/.332/.426 with 18 home runs and 66 RBI last season and, with exceptional abilities behind the plate, brings massive value entering his age-28 season. Unless Atlanta, which sent William Contreras to Milwaukee in the trade, also gets rid of Travis d'Arnaud, Murphy and d'Arnaud figure to share time behind the plate in 2023, with the latter seeing more action at designated hitter.
