The Braves have selected the contract of outfielder Brewer Hicklen, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. The 40-man roster had a vacancy after catcher Austin Wynns was outrighted yesterday. Hicklen has been optioned back to Triple-A Gwinnett and will not be immediately added to the active roster.
It might seem odd to add a player to the 40-man roster but keep him in the minors. In these situations, the player usually has some kind of opt-out in his deal. Giving the player a roster spot prevents him from opting out. Keeping him in the minors means no one currently on the big league roster needs to be bumped off.
More to come.
