The Braves designated right-hander Elieser Hernandez for assignment, calling up left-hander Connor Thomas from Triple-A Gwinnett. Hernandez, who recently made his first MLB appearance since 2024 and earned a win, had a 4.83 ERA over 76 1/3 innings in Gwinnett. After spending time with various teams, including the KBO League, he may be viewed as a veteran option for the Braves. If he clears waivers, Hernandez can choose free agency over being outrighted.
