"Braves claimed RHP Alek Manoah off waivers from the Toronto Blue Jays. To make room on the 40-man roster, Atlanta transferred INF Ozzie Albies to the 60-day injured list," O'Brien wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Manoah spent most of his time this season rehabbing from Tommy John surgery and trying to get back in the major leagues. This year, his final seven starts came from Triple-A Buffalo, as he pitched to a 2.97 ERA over 33.1 innings.
