Indians' Ryan Flaherty: Contract selected
Ryan Flaherty had his contract selected by the Cleveland Indians on Sunday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.Flaherty signed a minor-league deal with the club March 31 and has spent the entire season with Triple-A Columbus. He's managed a .263/.365/.466 line in 113 games but, perhaps more importantly, has spent significant time at every infield position besides catcher.

Braves' Ryan Flaherty: Returns to big club
The Atlanta Braves selected Ryan Flaherty's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.Flaherty looked like he wouldn't be in line to join the Braves in September after being designated for assignment last month, but a spot with the big club opened up for him after outfielder Michael Reed (back) was placed on the 60-day disabled list. The 32-year-old will give the Braves a depth option that can be plugged in all over the infield, but he won't be in store for frequent at-bats unless the team loses multiple key regulars to injury.

Braves' Ryan Flaherty: Designated for assignment

Braves' Ryan Flaherty: Remains stuck on bench
Ryan Flaherty went 0-for-1 as a pinch hitter in Sunday's loss to the Brewers.The veteran utility man hasn't started a game since June 23, and Flaherty's primary use to the Atlanta Braves these days is as a bat off the bench. The emergence of Johan Camargo as the starting third baseman, as well as Charlie Culberson's solid numbers in left field, have cut off Flaherty's avenues to even semi-consistent playing time, and his .250/.331/.338 slash line on the season doesn't make a strong case to change that.

Braves' Ryan Flaherty: Role on the decline
Ryan Flaherty is out of the lineup Sunday against the Red Sox.As of mid-May, Flaherty had been seeing regular action at third base as part of a platoon with Jose Bautista, but the recent return of Dansby Swanson from the disabled list has allowed Johan Camargo to shift over to the hot corner on an everyday basis. Bautista has since been released, so Flaherty appears poised to serve as the Atlanta Braves' top utility man, a role that will probably only afford him a start or two per week.
