Braves optioned INF Jim Jarvis to Triple-A Gwinnett

This means Brewer Hicklen will remain with the team after being the 27th man for the doubleheader. Jarvis had been starting at shortstop for the Braves for much of the summer, but his playing time had lessened in recent weeks, and the production simply hasn’t been there. Mauricio Dubon will take over as the primary shortstop in Atlanta for the remainder of the season.
