Braves' Drew Stubbs: Designated for assignment Monday
Stubbs was designated for assignment Monday.
Analysis:
Stubbs shared some time in center field with Mallex Smith while Ender Inciarte (hamstring) has been injured, but his .237 batting average hasn't exactly impressed the Braves brass very much, leading them to send him off the 40-man roster. He has a decent amount of MLB experience under his belt, so he could get swiped up by another team in need of outfield depth, although he'll likely end up in Triple-A with whatever team has him.
