Atlanta Braves first cuts trim down Spring roster

On Friday, the Atlanta Braves announced they had trimmed their roster down to 48 players. They sent three pitchers to AAA and seven players to minor league camp.

Of the roster moves, the Braves sent Luiz Gohara, Patrick Weigel and Huascar Ynoa to Triple-A Gwinnett. Gohara and Weigel are both, at different paces, are working their way back injuries looking to eventually get a spot on the main roster.

Gohara, after dealing with a number of obstacles on and off the field, will look to earn back the status as a top prospect while Weigel will look to get back to his form before his TJ surgery, which was on the verge of getting a call-up.
