As the Braves prepare to take on the Phillies in Philadelphia later this evening, they’ve made a series of roster moves to bolster their club.
The #Braves today returned C Tyler Flowers from his rehabilitation assignment and reinstated him from the 10-day disabled list, and recalled RHP Chase Whitley from Triple-A Gwinnett.

In order to make room on the active roster, the club optioned RHP Matt Wisler to Triple-A Gwinnett and designated C Carlos Pérez for assignment.

To briefly recap:
Tyler Flowers was injured in his very first plate appearance of the season and missed nearly all of the season’s first month with oblique discomfort.
