The Atlanta Braves have made a roster move before tonight’s game with the New York Mets:
The Braves promoted Rafael Ortega and returned Patrick Weigel to Gwinnett.
Rafael Ortega joins Atlanta’s bench for the first time tonight! He owns a career slash line of .236/.291/.286 and -0.9 WAR in 109 MLB games. He has been hot in Gwinnett, however, with a .285/.373/.524 line an 126 wRC+.
