ATLANTA (AP) — The Atlanta Braves have placed struggling reliever Jonny Venters on the 15-day disabled list with a left elbow impingement.
Thursday’s move came after the left-hander gave up his sixth homer of the season to Jeff Baker in Wednesday night’s 5-1 loss to the Chicago Cubs.
Left-hander Luis Avilan was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett.
