Outrighted to alternate camp Chacin cleared waivers and was outrighted to the alternate training site Monday.
Impact Chacin wasn't able to find another spot in a major-league bullpen on waivers, so he'll head to the alternate training site to continue working. The right-hander recorded a 7.20 ERA and 1.80 WHIP over five major-league innings this season and could be an option to fill in as a reliever for the Braves if injuries occur.

First start slated for Tuesday Wright is slated to start Tuesday's game in Tampa Bay.
Impact As expected, Wright's inclusion on the pitching schedule confirms that he'll begin the season as the fifth man in the Atlanta rotation. With Cole Hamels (triceps) on the 45-day injured list, Wright should have the opportunity to stick in the rotation for the majority of the season if his performance warrants it. Jhoulys Chacin, Touki Toussaint, Josh Tomlin and Bryse Wilson wait in the wings as potential replacements in the event Wright struggles in his initial starts.

Clean in relief win Chacin (1-0) earned the win Sunday with 3.2 innings of scoreless pitching. He allowed one hit and one walk while striking out one versus the Mets.
Impact Chacin was used in tandem with Sean Newcomb, who started the game for the Braves. The 32-year-old Chacin will likely work out of the bullpen in 2020, mostly in a long-relief or piggyback role behind a starter. He posted a 6.01 ERA and 1.56 WHIP with 101 strikeouts in 103.1 innings between the Brewers and Red Sox in 2019.
