The Atlanta Braves recall left-handed reliever Ray Kerr and designate left-handed pitcher Danny Young for assignment ahead of their Sunday game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Kerr is 31 and returns to the major leagues after previously pitching for Atlanta in 2024.
According to the reports, Kerr completes a recovery period and returns to active pitching in mid-July. He has appeared in nine games, working across multiple minor-league affiliates, including Triple-A Gwinnett. The outlets also note that Young’s designation for assignment follows Kerr’s recall, but they provide no additional detail on his recent performance or reasons beyond the roster move.
Both sources align on the same roster actions, the timing relative to the Diamondbacks game, and Kerr’s recent rehab and minor-league appearances, with no conflicting information presented.
