Martin's contract was purchased by the Braves on Sunday, David Lee of the Augusta Chronicle reports.

Analysis:

As expected, Martin will fill a long-relief role in the Atlanta bullpen, while Mike Foltynewicz will be in the starting rotation for Triple-A Gwinnett. With Mike Minor (shoulder) expected to be out until May, Martin or Foltynewicz could step into the big league rotation if the Braves lose another starter.
