Launches first spring homer White went 2-for-2 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays.

Impact Getting the start in right field and batting eighth, White lofted a Nick Martinez slider over the left-field fence in the fourth inning for his first long ball of the spring. The veteran outfielder is batting .414 (12-for-29) with three doubles and two steals in addition to Monday's homer, and White is on track to serve as the primary platoon partner for Mike Yastrzemski this season after he hit 10 home runs with 10 stolen bases in only 271 plate appearances for Atlanta in 2025.

Could be headed for bigger role White appears to be the top internal candidate to replace Jurickson Profar (suspension) as a platoon partner for Mike Yastrzemski in left field, Gabriel Burns of the Atlanta Journa...

Impact With Profar set to be suspended for the entire 2026 season, pending an appeal, Atlanta is left scrambling to replace his at-bats. White has a .248/.305/.440 slash line over the last three seasons against left-handed pitching and offers a strong defensive profile, so he represents a solid floor option if the club doesn't look outside the organization for reinforcements. Utility player Mauricio Dubon could also push White for that role later in the season, but he'll be needed at shortstop initially with Ha-Seong Kim (finger) likely out until May.

Avoids arbitration with Atlanta Atlanta and White avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract Friday.

Impact White will get a little raise in his first year of arbitration eligibility. The speedy outfielder slashed .234/.270/.406 with 10 home runs and 10 stolen bases over 105 games with the big club in 2025. The right-handed-hitting White had a .736 OPS versus left-handed pitching this past season and could see some starts versus southpaws in 2026.

Pops solo homer in loss White went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Cubs.

Impact White launched his eighth homer of the year and his first since Aug. 5 versus Milwaukee. Barring an injury to any of Atlanta's key players, the 31-year-old utility man should continue to play a part-time role to close out the campaign. For the season, White is batting a poor .233 with eight doubles, three triples, 31 RBI, 39 runs scored and eight stolen bases over 240 at-bats (95 games).

White is 0-for-14 with nine strikeouts over his last five games, and with Ronald Acuna's (calf) return imminent, White's playing time is about to slip even more.
