After a trade, Braves designate Robinson Cano for assignment

Cano began his third season with the New York Mets this spring. But after 41 at-bats over 12 games played, he was released in early May. After a short stint with the San Diego Padres, Cano was let go again, only to be re-signed to a minor-league deal with the club.

In early July, the eight-time All-Star was traded to the Atlanta Braves. In nine games played with the team, he went 4-for-26 with no home runs or runs batted in. Between the Mets, Padres and Braves this season, Cano has gone 15-for-100 with a single home run, 4 RBIs, while striking out 25 times.

Cano will turn 40 in October. He missed the entire 2021 campaign following his second suspension for violating MLB's performance-enhancing drugs (PED) policy.
