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.

The Atlanta Braves made a series of roster moves Tuesday, beginning with the activation of the recently acquired Ha-Seong Kim. The announcement was followed by Jurickson Profar's move to the paternity list, the promotion of Hayden Harris, and the demotions of Hunter Stratton and Wander Suero. In his Braves debut, Kim logged eight innings at shortstop and went 2-for-4 at the plate. Should he stay with the club, it appears Atlanta has solved the shortstop problem.

Acuña missed nearly three weeks with a Grade 1 strain in his right calf, leading to his reinstatement from the injured list.
