Carlos Carrasco Designated for Assignment by Atlanta Braves

The Atlanta Braves have designated veteran pitcher Carlos Carrasco for assignment. The move was made to create space on the active roster for the reinstatement of relief pitcher Raisel Iglesias from the 10-day injured list. Carrasco’s departure comes as the Braves reshuffle their pitching staff, which also saw Dylan Dodd and Ha-Seong Kim stationed at Triple-A Gwinnett. The veteran right-hander will now either be traded, placed on waivers, or released by the Atlanta organization.
