Braves Release Cal Quantrill, Designate Luke Williams
"The Braves announced Thursday that they've released right-hander Cal Quantrill and designated infielder/outfielder Luke Williams for assignment. That duo's roster spots will go to outfielder Jurickson Profar, who's returning from the paternity list, and righty Daysbel Hernandez, who has been recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett. Quantrill's time with Atlanta will last all of two weeks. The Braves claimed the righty off waivers from the Marlins on Aug. 21, absorbing the remaining $715K on his $3.5MM salary in the process."
"They'll end up getting just two starts for that roll of the dice; Quantrill allowed three runs on five hits and five walks in 4 2/3 innings against the Mets on Aug. 23 before being shelled for nine runs in 3 1/3 innings against the Phillies five days later. His Atlanta stint concludes with a grisly 13.50 ERA in eight innings. More to come."
