Will the Braves convert Folty into a full-time reliever?
The Braves have recalled Mike Foltynewicz from Gwinnett to serve as an extra bullpen arm, according to MLB's Mark Bowman. Joey Terdoslavich, who had seldom played since being recalled a few weeks ago, was optioned to Triple-A to make room on the roster.
As he came up through the Astros' farm system, some scouts liked Foltynewicz as a late-inning reliever. He's seen mixed results in limited big league starts, and the Braves made the decision about a month ago that he needed more seasoning in the minors.
