Braves Ship Off Montero to Tigers for Minor League INF

The Atlanta Braves make their first move as sellers ahead of the deadline. They announced Wednesday night that they have acquired infielder Jim Jarvis in exchange for right-hander Rafael Montero.

The Tigers bolster the bullpen while the Braves add depth to the minor league system.

Jarvis has been in the Tigers' minor league system since they drafted him in the 11th round of the 2023 draft. At the time of the trade, he was playing for the Double-A Erie SeaWolves.

He was promoted to Double-A to start the season and has been there all year.
