Since Feb 26 Atlanta Braves have optioned four of their pitchers back to Triple-A, and sent three to minor league camps, leaving them with a total of 53 athletes in camps as of Feb 28.

Right handed pitcher Davis Daniel was sent to Triple-A Gwinnett after pitching two innings for the Braves on Feb 25 when they took down the Pittsburg Pirates 2-1. Daniel walked one batter, but also was able to come up with no hits and no runs earned.

Right handed pitcher Amos Willingham was optioned to Gwinnett on Feb 27 as well. Willingham pitched just one inning for the Braves on Feb 26, where despite two strikeouts he also pitched one hit and one run earned.

The Braves posted an update on X on Feb 26 announcing the roster moves and noting that they had 54 athletes in minor league camp.

Less than 24 hours later it was announced on the Braves’ X that yet another pitcher had been reassigned. 

Right handed pitcher Wander Suero was sent to minor league camp following the Braves’ 4-3 victory against the Washington Nationals on Feb 27. Suero’s last game in a Major League Spring Training game, like Willingham, was on Feb 26. Suero pitched one inning with no strikeouts, four hits and two runs earned.

Other athletes optioned back to Triple-A Gwinnett include, left handed pitcher Dylan Dodd, and right handed pitcher Hurston Waldrep. Pitchers Enoli Paredes and Royber Salinas were also reassigned to minor league camp on Feb 26.
