The Atlanta Braves announced Sunday evening that right-hander Jesse Chavez has been outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett.
He was designated for assignment Thursday night as part of the roster moves that added Dane Dunning to the 40-man roster. Right-hander José Ruiz and cash considerations were sent to the Texas Rangers to complete the deal.
Previously, Chavez had elected free agency and then re-signed with the team, but chose to accept his assignment this time around.
Chavez has been on and off the Braves 40-man roster throughout the season. He's made four appearances this season, pitching to a 9.
