The Atlanta Braves have made another roster move.
Atlanta signed outfielder Matt Scannell to a minor-league deal on Tuesday. The move was seen on the MLB transactions log.
Scannell is a 24-year-old outfielder who signed with the Blue Jays as an undrafted free agent in 2025. He began his minor-league career in the Florida Complex League but was quickly promoted to the Dunedin Blue Jays, which is Single-A.
Scannell began the 2026 season in Dunedin before being promoted to the Vancouver Canadiens in High-A. However, he struggled at the plate, and Toronto released him on June 27.
Although he was released three days ago, Scannell quickly latched on with the Braves. He was assigned to the Augusta GreenJackets, which is Atlanta’s Single-A affiliate.
Scannell hit .163 with 2 home runs and 12 RBIs this season between Dunedin and Vancouver. In his pro career, he’s hitting .179 with 5 home runs and 23 RBIs.
More to come.
