I don't even think AA should be lauded for this. This contract is so bad for the player that I honestly feel sorry for him, and it's a bad look for the Braves org.
I also don't really understand the motivation for Albies to sign a deal like this. After this season he'll be up to ~1.5M in career earnings, and he's been good enough at the MLB level that he knows there are millions more in his future. This isn't a kid who has no idea if he can play in the majors. He's already rich, and about to get really rich, even going year to year.
