Braves avoided arbitration with OF Jason Heyward by agreeing to a one-year, $3.65 million contract.
Heyward was arbitration-eligible for the first time, and with his salary set to shoot up even higher in subsequent years, an extension would be advisable. He batted .269/.335/.479 with 27 homers and 21 steals in 2012.
