Eddie Perez activated from 15-day DL, Seth Greisinger designated for assignment
This is really getting ridiculous. Johnny Estrada will be sidelined for at least 4 games after being levelled by Darin Erstad. He doesn’t remember anything after catching the throw which could be indicative of a concussion. Brayan Pena will start in his place in the meantime.
Eddie Perez has been activated from the 15-day disabled list to back up Pena though Perez’s shoulder is still bothering him. Seth Greisinger was designated for assignment in order to clear room on the roster for Perez. The Braves are hoping no team is interested in him and that he clears waivers. If he does, the Braves will still need to wait 10 days before recalling him. That means he cannot be added to the 25-man roster again until June 19th. The Braves will therefore have to call up another minor league pitcher to start on June 14th (unless they start one of their pitchers on 3 days rest yet again). What a mess! I actually remember thinking how lucky the Braves were to have so few people on the disabled list at the end of April. Things sure went to hell in a handbasket in a hurry!!
