    Also on Friday, the Braves optioned infielder Cavan Biggio to Triple-A Gwinnett.

    Biggio, 29, is 1-for-5 in four games with the Braves this season. He also has played for the Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers this season.

    The son of Hall of Famer Craig Biggio showed promise as a rookie with 16 homers, 48 RBIs and 14 steals in 100 games with the Blue Jays in 2019. He finished fifth in American League Rookie of the Year balloting.

    But he has since failed to reach double digits in homers or even had as many as 70 hits in a season. Biggio has a .225 career average with 51 homers and 186 RBIs in 524 career games.
