Atlanta recalled Ornelas from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

Just one day after being swapped off the active roster, Ornelas will rejoin Atlanta to replace outfielder Jarred Kelenic, who was optioned to Triple-A as part of a series of moves Monday. Ornelas is capable of playing three infield spots and can handle spot duty in the outfield. The 25-year-old has slashed .202/.320/.300 with six home runs and six steals in 79 games at Triple-A this season.
