"Scott, 33, is a well-traveled righty who made 24 appearances between the Astros and Diamondbacks last year. He struggled to a 7.90 earned run average over 27 1/3 innings. The South Africa-born pitcher is only a year removed from firing 68 2/3 frames of 2.23 ERA ball with Houston. He carries a 5.51 mark with a 21.2% strikeout percentage and 12.2% walk rate over parts of five MLB campaigns."
"Guerra returns to affiliated ball after two seasons in Japan. The 30-year-old infielder turned reliever was employed by the Hanshin Tigers from 2024-25. Guerra pitched to a 1.55 ERA across 59 appearances two seasons ago. He nevertheless spent most of last year with the Tigers' minor league affiliate, only pitching 4 2/3 innings at the NPB level. The Panamanian-born Guerra has a big arm but has struggled to throw strikes since making the mid-career move to pitching."
"English, a 28-year-old first baseman, played seven games for the Diamondbacks last year. He went 2-22 with a walk and eight strikeouts. English had a good season for Arizona's Triple-A affiliate, batting .324/.368/.524 with 16 homers across 428 plate appearances. That was better than average production even at a hitter's paradise in Reno. English has good contact skills and reasonable power, but he's prone to expanding the strike zone."
The Atlanta Braves added depth by signing right-handers Javy Guerra and Blayne Enlow, first baseman Tristin English, and reliever Tayler Scott to minor league contracts. Scott struggled to a 7.90 ERA over 27 1/3 innings last year but had a strong 2.23 ERA across 68 2/3 innings the previous season. Guerra returns from two seasons in Japan after a 1.55 ERA across 59 appearances two seasons ago but pitched only 4 2/3 NPB innings last year. English hit .324/.368/.524 with 16 homers in Triple-A and should begin at Triple-A Gwinnett. Enlow is a former third-round pick whose Triple-A progress stalled and who missed time due to a season-ending injury.
