The Atlanta Braves only gave a single plate appearance to their newest outfielder before designating him for assignment.
They made the move Monday to remove Jose Azocar from the 40-man roster. He’ll go on waivers.
The decision was made in order to activate 29-year old outfielder Stuart Fairchild from the Injured List after a pinky injury.
Azocar has bounced around the last few months. He only just got to the Braves a couple weeks ago from the Mets.
He was once a top prospect in the Padres system, but his career hasn’t progressed as hoped.
