They announced Friday morning that they recalled left-hander Austin Cox from Triple-A and optioned right-hander Dane Dunning. Dunning's arrival in Atlanta has been a roller coaster, to say the least.

On the flip side, he's had two outings where he's allowed eight runs on a combined two-thirds of an inning. He has the options, and the Braves are taking advantage of them.
