Atlanta designated Martinez for assignment Monday.
Martinez is clearing out to make room on the 40-man roster for outfielder Eddie Rosario, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Gwinnett ahead of Monday's game against Arizona. The 28-year-old Martinez has spent most of the season at Triple-A Gwinnett, where he produced a .695 OPS while stealing 20 bases across 257 plate appearances.
