Braves Promote John Brebbia in Late-Season Bullpen Shuffle

The promotion provides fresh relief following a 19-4 loss in Philadelphia.

Overview

  • Atlanta selected the contract of right-hander John Brebbia from Triple-A Gwinnett.
  • The club also recalled Nathan Wiles and optioned Austin Cox and Wander Suero after a 19-4 defeat in Philadelphia in which Kyle Schwarber hit four home runs.
  • Cox (68 pitches) and Suero (31) were unlikely to be available following heavy usage the previous game.
  • Two open 40-man roster spots meant no additional move was required to add Brebbia.
  • Brebbia earned the call with a 1.89 ERA over 19 Triple-A innings after a rough stint with Detroit in 2025, and further moves are possible with Chris Sale expected to come off the injured list Saturday.
