The Atlanta Braves have optioned pitcher Dylan Dodd to Triple-A Gwinnett and recalled Rolddy Muñoz ahead of their game against the Miami Marlins. Dodd performed well in his last outing, but the team opted for roster flexibility.
Washington Nationals v Atlanta Braves
The NL East leading Atlanta Braves, with the joint second best record in baseball, have made a somewhat predictable roster move before the first game versus the Miami Marlins.
The Braves have optioned Dylan Dodd to Triple-A Gwinnett this morning. They have replaced him with Rolddy Muñoz. Dylan spit hot fire last night, striking out two and allowing only one hit over three rather low leverage innings last night. He did his job perfectly last night, but modern MLB bullpen management detests having unavailable pitchers if it can be avoided. So he is on the Gwinnett shuttle for now, but Iâm sure heâll be back.
Replacing Dodd is Rolddy Muñoz, who made it inside the house because he is a reliever with options. Muñoz had a bit of a shaky debut with the Braves last season. But he brings a 96 MPH sinker with him along with a slider with Gwinnett. Letâs hope Rolddy brought the sugar cookies and not the 9.68 FIP that he posted in three appearances last season. Welcome back, Rolddy!
We still donât know if the Dodd moves mean anything about Didier Fuentes coming back to grab the fifth starter spot. But thatâs something weâll worry about when the Braves need a fifth.
Dylan Dodd was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett to provide roster flexibility, despite performing well in his last appearance.
Fans can expect Rolddy Muñoz to bring a 96 MPH sinker and a slider to the bullpen, hoping for improved performance compared to his previous season.
In his last game, Dylan Dodd struck out two batters and allowed only one hit over three innings.
