Jesse Chavez News: Rejoins big club

Atlanta selected Chavez's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Chavez will regain a spot on Atlanta's 40-man roster for the third time this season, as he had previously elected free agency and re-signed with the organization on minor-league deals after being designated for assignment on two occasions in April. Since signing his latest contract May 1, the 41-year-old righty has pitched well for Gwinnett, logging a 2.22 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 24:12 K:BB in 24.1 innings. He'll likely fill a low-leverage role for Atlanta.
