After an extremely rough start against the Mets last night, Aaron Blair will be going back to Gwinnett, with Matt Marksberry coming up.
Aaron Blair’s had a rough go of it at the Major League level so far, and it was capped off by an ugly appearance against the Mets last night. New York roughed Blair up last night, as the rookie gave up eight earned runs in just 4.1 innings.
As such, the Braves have decided that it’s time to send him back down to AAA Gwinnett for the time being, as the team announced today that he’s been optioned to the G-Braves, with Matt Marksberry making his return to the big league squad.
