Heading back to Gwinnett Atlanta optioned Cox to Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

Impact Cox was hammered for seven runs in a three-inning relief appearance Thursday in Philadelphia, throwing 68 pitches. He wasn't going to be available to pitch for at least a day or two, so Atlanta is replacing him with a fresh bullpen arm.

Austin Cox's unavailability is Braves' MLB Speedway Classic 'nightmare scenario' vs Reds Braves left-handed pitcher Austin Cox had his start Saturday night at Bristol Motor Speedway suspended, likely leaving him unavailable for S...

AUGUST 3, 2025 • CINCINNATI.COM

Start suspended Saturday Cox allowed one run on three hits while retiring one batter (on a strikeout) Saturday against the Reds before the game was suspended due to inclement weather.

Impact Cox was pressed into starting duties after Spencer Strider was scratched due to a weather delay that lasted well over an hour. Cox tossed 17 pitches in the rain in the first frame before the game was halted and ultimately suspended. Atlanta reportedly was set for a bullpen game, so Cox's outing wasn't likely to last much longer even if the contest had continued. The matchup is scheduled to resume Sunday afternoon, and Cox is eligible to return to the mound, but it's unlikely Atlanta will send him back out.

Working as opener Saturday Cox will open Saturday's game against the Reds after Spencer Strider was scratched due to a weather delay, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Strider had already completed most or all of his warmup before the delay -- which lasted well over an hour -- was announced, so Atlanta decided not to put the star hurler on the mound. Cox will instead open what's slated to be a bullpen game. The lefty hasn't tossed more than two innings in any big-league appearance this season, though he did go 3.2 frames and throw 60 pitches in a start with Triple-A Gwinnett the last time he was on the mound (July 24). so he's well-rested and stretched out enough to handle a few frames if Atlanta opts for that approach.

Back in majors Atlanta recalled Cox from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

Impact The left-hander has spent the past couple weeks in the minors but is back in the majors ahead of Friday's game in Cincinnati. Cox has made six MLB appearances this year and has allowed two earned runs with an 11:1 K:BB over eight innings.

Sent back to Triple-A Atlanta optioned Cox to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Impact Cox's latest stint with the big club lasted just under two weeks. He made four relief appearances following his July 2 call-up from Gwinnett, giving up one earned run on four hits and one walk over five innings. Cox will cede his spot on the active roster to right-hander Davis Daniel, who was recalled from Triple-A to either start or pitch in bulk relief Sunday in St. Louis.

Brought up from Triple-A Atlanta recalled Cox from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Impact Cox was optioned to Gwinnett less than a week ago, but he'll be eligible to rejoin the big club because Atlanta placed right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach (elbow) on the 15-day injured list in ha corresponding move. The 28-year-old will provide manager Brian Snitker with a fourth left-handed option in the bullpen behind Dylan Lee, Aaron Bummer and Dylan Dodd.

Braves Place 2024 NL Cy Young Winner Chris Sale on IL With Fractured Rib Cage

Back in Atlanta Atlanta recalled Cox from Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.

Impact With Chris Sale (ribs) headed to the injured list, Atlanta will bring up Cox to provide the club with some extra bullpen depth. The 28-year-old southpaw hasn't appeared in an MLB game yet this year, but he owns a 4.05 ERA and 1.54 WHIP across 26.2 innings split between Atlanta's and Kansas City's Triple-A affiliates.

Called up Saturday Atlanta recalled Cox from Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.

Impact In a somewhat surprising move, Atlanta DFA'd veteran reliver Craig Kimbrel -- who had just been called up Friday -- in order to make room on the roster for Cox. The latter signed with Atlanta in early May after beginning the campaign in Kansas City's system. Cox hasn't pitched in the majors since 2023, and in eight games with Gwinnett after joining Atlanta's organization, he posted a 4.22 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 8:3 K:BB over 10.2 innings. He's likely to fill a low-leverage role in Atlanta's bullpen.
