Dodgers News: Recently Acquired Infield Prospect Claimed off Waivers by Braves

File this under mostly less than important news, but the Dodgers lost infield prospect Rylan Bannon to the Braves after Atlanta claimed the prospect off the waiver wire.

The Dodgers recently had claimed Bannon off waivers from the Baltimore Orioles and assigned him to Triple-A Oklahoma City. However, less than a week after claiming him, LA designated him for assignment needing a spot on the 40-man roster for catcher Tony Wolters.

Certainly, the front office was hoping he would pass through waivers and be able to rejoin the AAA ballclub, but now Bannon joins the Braves who have been in need of infield help while All-Star second baseman Ozzie Albies has been on the injured list.
