Braves recall Jim Jarvis, designate Rowdy Tellez for assignment

The Atlanta Braves recalled infielder Jim Jarvis and designated Rowdy Tellez for assignment on July 2, 2026. This marks Jarvis' second stint with the team after making his MLB debut earlier this season, where he performed moderately well. Tellez's brief tenure included just 11 plate appearances, where he managed a hit and a home run, but was seen as excess on the roster. Jarvis may provide depth to the infield as the Braves face ongoing challenges with player performances. The Braves are set to play a rubber game against the Redbirds later tonight, and Jarvis is expected to be in uniform.
