The Braves optioned Ryan Schimpf to Triple-A on Sunday morning as the club continued to trim its roster.

Schimpf is not having a strong spring. Including his time with Tampa Bay, he’s 0-for-30 with 19 strikeouts. He was 0-for-16 with 11 strikeouts with Atlanta. Add in two errors at third base on Saturday and it seemed like his days were numbered.

Schimpf has shown he can be a playable big leaguer over the last two years, but (clearly) he needs to fix a few things before getting a chance to show what he can do.

Johan Camargo remains the heavy favorite to see most of the time at third base moving forward. He missed the last few games with a sore back and oblique. Rio Ruiz may also be in the mix, although the Braves may elect for him to play regularly in Gwinnett instead.

The Braves also reassigned outfielder Jaff Decker to minor league camp on Sunday.

Opening Day is March 29th. Expect a handful of cuts over the next few days as the Braves trim the roster down to 25 players.
