Atlanta Braves trade outfielder J.P. Martinez from Texas Rangers for pitcher Tyler Owens, creating roster spot for David Robertson.

The Atlanta Braves have acquired outfielder J.P. Martínez from the Texas Rangers in exchange for right-handed pitcher Tyler Owens, a move that creates a spot on the 40-man roster for David Robertson. Martínez made his major league debut with the Rangers in 2023, while Owens was the Braves' 13th-round pick in the 2019 draft. Both clubs dealt from positions of depth and addressed areas of need, making this a sensible swap for both parties.
