The Braves have officially announced that the team has DFA’d former top prospect Luiz Gohara today following a flurry of trade deadline moves.
Gohara’s 40 man roster spot was needed following the Braves trades for Mark Melancon and Shane Greene today. Gohara has not pitched at all this season and was shut down for the remainder of 2019 after undergoing arthroscopic surgery earlier this month. Gohara has had a rough history with injuries as he pitched just 77.2 innings in 2018 after starting the season on the IL with an ankle issue that never properly healed.
