Braves acquire C Jason Delay from Pirates

The Atlanta Braves have acquired Jason Delay from the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash.

The Braves optioned him to Double-A Columbus.

Delay is a 30-year-old veteran. He appeared in 134 total games for the Pirates over the last three seasons. During that span, he recorded two home runs, 35 RBIs, and a .231 batting average.

Behind the plate, Delay racked up four defensive runs saved above average, per Baseball Reference.

The Pirates designated him for assignment on April 1.

Delay adds an experienced depth option in the Braves’ system. The Braves transferred 31-year-old right-handed pitcher Reynaldo Lopez (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list to free up a spot on the roster.

The Pirates also welcomed outfielder Alexander Canario, 24, to their active roster, optioning outfielder/second baseman Ji-Hwan Bae to Triple-A Indianapolis.
