Minor MLB Transactions: 7/16/18

By Steve Adams | July 16, 2018 at 8:51am CDT

We’ll track Monday’s minor moves from around the game here…

  • The Braves’ Triple-A affiliate announced yesterday that veteran catcher Rob Brantly has been released, with prospect Alex Jackson moving up from Double-A Mississippi to Triple-A Gwinnett in his place. Brantly, 29, has had an ugly season in Triple-A this year, hitting at just a .218/.254/.293 clip through 201 plate appearances. He had an excellent year between the Triple-A affiliates for the Reds and White Sox last season and even hit .290/.389/.516 in 36 big league plate appearances with the White Sox, but that success hasn’t carried over to the 2018 campaign. Jackson hasn’t exactly had a productive season, either, as he’s posted a woeful .200/.282/.329 and struck out in 31 percent of his 252 plate appearances.

      I can’t wait for the “mystery-team” to get involved on Manny Machado. I’m sure it’ll happen any minute now…

        They are always overpaying for players..probably why you never hear about them winning

    Jackson doesn’t deserve this promotion. Only reason I can think why is they are trying to spread all their catching prospect into all lvls to give each more playing time. We have roughly 5 that are or have been top prospects.

      Talent difference not huge between the two levels. Expect that they plan to shuffle the catchers at the lower levels as well.

      Ajax needs to play and continue developing as a backstop… OK to get a fresh start.

        Yea that’s what i was saying. All our catching prospects are lumped in A-Adv a ball. Need to spread them out get them playing more often, more swings
