After Vidal Brujan’s split contract, the Braves have six (seven?) arbitration-eligible players that could be non-tendered by this afternoon’s deadline: Dubon is pretty much a lock because, well, they traded for him and his modest-but-higher-than-Nick-Allen’s-would-have-been arbitration-eligible salary. Lee and White seem like near-locks because they aren’t due very much (likely at or under $2 million) […]
