• Braves' Eli White: Summoned from Triple-A

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Atlanta recalled White from Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday. The 30-year-old outfielder is one of two September call-ups for Atlanta, joining right-handed reliever John Brebbia. White has gotten on base at a .388 clip while popping eight home runs and going 24-for-26 on stolen-base attempts across 340 plate appearances for Gwinnett this season, but he saw sparse usage in his prior two stints with the big club in 2024. He'll likely be utilized mainly as a pinch runner or late-inning defensive replacement during the final month of the season.

• Braves' Eli White: Sent back to Gwinnett

  Atlanta optioned White to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday. After being called up from Gwinnett on July 5, White started in each of Atlanta's ensuing three games, but he quickly fell out of favor and logged just two plate appearances in total over the subsequent two weeks. White will head back to Gwinnett to pick up regular at-bats and will cede his spot on the 26-man active roster to veteran Whit Merrifield, who signed a one-year deal with Atlanta on Monday and could push for playing time at second base or in the corner outfield.

• Braves' Eli White: Relegated to bench role

  07/14/2024 • By RotoWire

  White is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres. After making three starts in the outfield last weekend versus the Phillies while Atlanta played without Ramon Laureano (oblique), White has moved back to the bench, even though Laureano was placed on the injured list Wednesday. Rather than White, Atlanta has turned to Eddie Rosario to fill the opening in the outfield, as Rosario will get his seventh consecutive start Sunday. The right-handed-hitting White could still be a candidate to replace the lefty-hitting Rosario in the lineup against left-handed pitching, at least until Laureano returns from the IL.
