Gwinnett Braves Get Pitcher from Atlanta

Minor optioned back to Class AAA club.

The Gwinnett Braves have again added pitcher Mike Minor from the parent club in Atlanta.Β The G-Braves announced the move Wednesday when outfielder Matt Young was recalled to Atlanta.

Minor is a left-handed starter who was 3-2 with a 5.98 earned run average with Atlanta. He is expected to be recalled to Atlanta later in June when the parent club needs a fifth starting pitcher, according to news reports.

With Gwinnett in 2011, Minor is 4-1 with a 1.98 earned run average in 33 1/3 innings.
