The Braves are trading reliever Michael Petersen to the Marlins for cash considerations, reports Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. She adds that Petersen will be optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville. Miami will need to create a 40-man roster spot to finalize the deal.
Atlanta had designated Petersen for assignment last week. The 31-year-old righty pitched four times for the Braves. He tossed 6 2/3 innings of three-run ball, striking out five with a pair of walks. Petersen has spent more of the season with their top affiliate in Gwinnett. Petersen has turned in a 3.13 ERA with a solid 25.7% strikeout rate and a 7% walk percentage in the minors. It’s his second straight impressive Triple-A season. He fired 33 innings of 1.64 ERA ball while punching out more than a third of opponents there last year.
