Five from the 40-man roster were optioned: Camargo and right-handers Blair, Sims and Akeel Morris were optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett, and left-hander Fried was optioned to Double-A Mississippi. Two non-roster invitees, lefty A.J. Minter and infielder Travis Demeritte, were reassigned to minor league camp.

Players on the 40-man roster must be optioned to a minor league team when sent down, while non-roster players are reassigned to minor league camp and can be assigned to an affiliate at that time or later in spring training.
