The Braves have finally addressed their outfield need _ with the same person who manned the position the last four years.
Nick Markakis is staying with the Braves on a one-year deal, which includes a club option, The AJC confirmed Tuesday. His base salary for 2019 is $4 million, with the option worth $6 million (with a $2 million buyout), as first reported by The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal.
Markakis, 35, made his first All-Star game last season and won gold glove and silver slugger honors. He's hit .284/.359/.400 in 636 games with the team from 2015-18.
