Anthopoulos: Braves Expect Payroll To Rise
Briefly

Braves' general manager Alex Anthopoulos expects player payroll to increase for the next season, continuing a trend of rising salaries since he's been with the team.
Anthopoulos detailed his approach to payroll strategy, stating "it's not going to go down, I expect it to rise... but every year we've set a new Braves high."
The Braves are on track to exceed the luxury tax threshold again in 2025, which will incur significantly higher penalties for repeat offenders, complicating their financial strategy.
Currently, the Braves have close to $223MM in player salaries with estimations suggesting luxury tax figures may reach $279MM, indicating significant financial commitments.
