The Atlanta Braves have opened up a spot on their 40-man roster as Eddie Rosario homers for the Gwinnett Stripers.
According to BBWAA member and sports writer Francys Romero, the Braves are designating outfielder J.P. Martinez for assignment. He will now go through waivers.Once a player is designated for assignment, he is off the team’s 40-man roster and will go through waivers. If Martinez clears waivers, the Braves can either release Martinez or be assigned outright to a minor league team - aka just stick around Gwinnett. The Braves can also trade Martinez to another club that claims him off waivers.
Rosario reported to Triple-A Gwinnett and immediately had a strong weekend with the club, including a 2-for-4 day solo shot in the Stripers’ 4-3 loss to the St. Paul Saints on Sunday.In three games, Rosario batted .273 with a 1.060 OPS. Rosario played 67 games with the Washington Nationals this season before returning to the Braves organization. He batted .183 with a .555 OPS, seven home runs and 26 RBIs.
