• Braves' Magneuris Sierra: Shifted to minor-league camp

  03/14/2023 • By RotoWire

  Sierra was reassigned to minor-league camp Tuesday. Sierra will most likely return to Triple-A, where he slashed .297/.358/.437 and drove in 45 RBI through 311 plate appearances last season. He also stole 22 bases. There's a chance he appears in some games this season for Atlanta, and if so, most of his value will come from swiping bags.

• Braves' Magneuris Sierra: Heads to Atlanta on NRI deal

  01/30/2023 • By RotoWire

  Sierra agreed Monday with Atlanta on a minor-league contract and received an invitation to MLB spring training, Chris Harris of the Mississippi Braves reports. A former top prospect, Sierra has not been able to find success against major-league pitching, and he posted just a .442 OPS over 96 plate appearances in 45 games with the Angels last year. His speed and defense does give him an outside chance of making the major-league squad out of spring training, but it would assuredly be in a role that offers no fantasy intrigue.
