Atlanta Braves Scouting Report on RHP Touki Toussaint

The Atlanta Braves targeted Toussaint in a deal to give salary relief to the Arizona Diamondbacks by bringing on the contract of Bronson Arroyo in 2015.

Dany Gilbert Kiti Toussaint (nicknamed Touki) was drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks with the 16th overall selection in the 2014 draft out of Coral Springs Christian Academy in Florida. He was selected one pick behind his now-organization mate Sean Newcomb, who went to the Angels at pick #15.

The Diamondbacks sent Toussaint to their Arizona Rookie League team, and he only spent a month there before being pushed up to the advanced rookie league Pioneer League team in Missoula in spite of his AZL numbers not exactly being all that pretty.
