The Braves announced Tuesday that they’ve selected the contract of lefty Connor Thomas from Triple-A Gwinnett. (Jesus Cano of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Thomas’ promotion shortly before the formal announcement.) Righty Owen Murphy was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett to open an active roster spot. Right-hander Daysbel Hernández was released in order to open a spot on the 40-man roster. Atlanta also recalled righty James Karinchak from Gwinnett and placed fellow right-handed reliever Tyler Kinley on the paternity list. He can spend up to three days there.

More to come.
