Unknøwn Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Chris Johnson to the DL with a broken left hand and Folty up from Gwinnett. Cahill remains in the bullpen but Fredi said its a not a permanent move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K26dp Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 Mark Bowman on Christian Bethancourt:After last night’s game, I opined that Shelby Miller might not have surrendered back-to-back homers to begin the seventh inning had he not had to throw 29 pitches during a sixth inning that would have been cleaner had Christitan Bethancourt not dropped the knee-high fastball Miller snuck past Billy Hamilton to begin the frame. The Braves love Bethancourt’s arm, but they have been discouraged by his glovework behind the plate. Had John Buck not retired near the end of Spring Training, I’m pretty certain the Braves would have already sent Bethancourt down to Triple-A Gwinnett. But because there is not an attractive backup option within the system right now, Bethancourt will continue serving in the backup role to A.J. Pierzynski, who I’m told has been a stern mentor to the young catcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknøwn Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Bethancourts work ethic has been a question. I actually thought the Braves might give Salty a look on a minimum deal. Gives them a decent option and allows Bethancourt to go get regular ABs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Braves send Ian Thomas to Gwinnett and call up Pedro Ciriaco. Braves had an extra arm with Cahill in the pen. Ciriaco replaces CJs bat. Minor goes to the 60 day DL to clear a 40 man spot for Ciriaco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
