Saturday was the first day of roster expansion around the league and the Atlanta Braves called up seven players most notably rookies Touki Toussaint, Bryce Wilson and Kyle Wright. Wright is in the majors for the first time and is poised to make his major league debut. It looks like the plan for now is for Wilson and Wright to pitch in relief with Toussaint a possibility to make a few starts over the final month.
Brian Snitker talked about today’s reinforcements and how they can have an impact on the team down the stretch.
