Arizona Fall League action continues behind the scenes with some Atlanta Braves talent catching attention as of late. Three position players have managed to keep popping up, and they will be part of the latest round-up.
Former Alabama baseball shortstop Jim Jarvis was promoted from the Double-A Columbus Clingstones to the Triple-A Gwinnett Stripers on Monday. Second baseman Cody Milligan was sent from Gwinnett to Columbus, with Jarvis presumably able to take on work vacated by Milligan's demotion.
The new MLB season brings opportunities as players head into their walk years and try to rebound from subpar performances. These 25 players stand out heading into 2026.
Montero heads back to the American League as the Braves pick up some organizational depth. Earlier on Wednesday, the Atlanta Braves made a deal with the Rockies to bring Tyler Kinley to Atlanta’s bullpen.
Former Alabama shortstop Jim Jarvis notched a career milestone on Tuesday as he hit his first Double-A home run for the Detroit Tigers affiliated Erie SeaWolves.
Taking up the mantle of Jim Jarvis, a four-year shortstop and program mainstay for the Alabama baseball team from 2020-23, promised to be a difficult task.
