Jeremy Walker has been optioned to Gwinnett. Jacob Webb/Patrick Weigel has been promoted to Atlanta and will be available for tonight’s game in Miami.
The #Braves today recalled RHP Patrick Weigel from Triple-A Gwinnett after optioning RHP Jeremy Walker to the Stripers following last night’s game.

Jeremy took one for the team last night. He relieved a battered Dallas Keuchel in the fourth inning. He pitched 3 1/3 innings of decent relief, allowing five hits, no walks, and striking out two. This will likely make Walker unavailable for tonight and probably tomorrow.
