ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves will get a significant piece of their bullpen back Tuesday after Jesse Chavez was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. Chavez has been out of action since June 14 when he was struck in the leg by a line drive off the bat from Miguel Cabrera. The injury was originally diagnosed as a bruise, but later imaging revealed that it was a microfracture. Chavez recently completed a rehab assignment where he made three scoreless appearances for Gwinnett. He is hoping to show enough over the final two weeks to work himself into the postseason picture for the bullpen.
