The Atlanta Braves announced on Monday that they have added right-handed relief pitcher Rolddy Muñoz to their MLB roster.
The #Braves today selected RHP Rolddy Muñoz to the major league roster.

This move protects Muñoz from next month’s Rule 5 Draft. The deadline to protect players from Rule 5 eligibility is Tuesday evening. The Braves 40-man roster is now up to 39 players.
The Rule 5 Draft allows clubs without a full 40-man roster to select certain non-40-man roster players from other clubs.
