Atlanta Braves promote third base prospect Austin Riley to the Mississippi Braves

The Atlanta Braves are expected to promote 20-year-old Austin Riley from the Florida Fire Frogs to the Mississippi Braves. I say expected because nothing official has been announced yet, but instead we’ve come over a “Honeybaked Ham” situation again.

Riley’s girlfriend posted on Twitter 140 characters referring to a possible promotion and she used the hashtag “#doubleA”. Riley responded to her saying thank you for all the support. Okay, so sounds official unless both accounts got hacked…which isn’t too far fetched, but doubtful.

Here’s the original tweet from Miss Anna Harrington (Riley’s girlfriend) and then his response.
