NORTH PORT, Fla. -- The Atlanta Braves claimed outfielder Guillermo Heredia off waivers from the New York Mets on Wednesday.
Heredia, who was added to Atlanta's 40-man roster, was designated for assignment on Sunday when the Mets finalized a deal with center fielder Kevin Pillar.
Heredia is the second veteran outfielder to be added to Atlanta's roster this week. The Braves claimed Phillip Ervin off waivers from the Chicago Cubs on Monday.
"We've got a lot of outfielders in camp all of a sudden," manager Brian Snitker said Wednesday.
