Atlanta Braves News: The Morning Chop, Braves Add Depth To Roster, Stephen Vogt

MLB Rumors

Tomahawk Take Editor’s Note: Atlanta Braves add depth to their minor league system as we signed Balbino Fuenmayor to a minor league contract. Guess what? It’s his birthday today! The 27-year-old has played at the AAA level the past two seasons. He’s hit for high average and many homers until 2016. He still hit .291 at the plate, but only recorded six home runs for the season. The big framed 6’3″, 230 pound first baseman/third baseman will most likely go to Gwinnett and play first. In 2015, G-Braves used a combination of seven players at first — Barrett Kleinknecht, Jordan Lennerton, Sean Kazmar and Joey Terdoslavich played the most time there in 2016.
