Braves send Arodys Vizcaino to DL, call up Shea Simmons

The Atlanta Braves made a couple of roster moves involving their bullpen on Tuesday when they placed Arodys Vizcaino on the 15-day disabled list and optioned Brandon Cunniff to Triple-A Gwinnett. The team recalled John Gant and Shae Simmons to take their spots on the active roster.

Arodys Vizcaino has been placed on the 15-day DL (right shoulder inflammation).
