  • Dodgers' Dian Toscano: Acquired by Dodgers

    Toscano was traded to the Dodgers on Thursday.

    The main piece of the trade saw Bud Norris shipped from Atlanta to Los Angeles, and Toscano was also part of the deal in return for a pair of minor leaguers. The 27-year-old was struggling in the Atlanta organization, slashing just .226/.310/.271 in 58 games at the Double-A level and is unlikely to see any time in the majors this season.

  • Braves' Dian Toscano: Plays in three spring training games

    Toscano batted 1-for-5 with an RBI for the Braves in spring training.

    Toscano only appeared in three games this spring, and the 27-year-old Cuban is thus ticketed to start the year in Triple-A. Considering the poor numbers he posted while playing winter ball in Puerto Rico and the fact that he's off the 40-man roster, he'll probably have a hard time finding his way to the majors this year.

  • Braves' Dian Toscano: Outrighted to Triple-A

  • Braves' Dian Toscano: Cleared to play Thursday

    Toscano has been cleared to play Thursday, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Toscano was signed by the Braves in December of 2014, but was unable to play due to issues in getting cleared to enter the United States. With these issues resolved, the 26-year-old will probably get some time playing in a winter league before the 2016 season. He'll likely need a bit of seasoning in the minors prior to joining the Braves, but he could join the team sometime in 2016 if he impresses at the higher levels of the minor leagues. He hit .356 with a .420 OBP in 32 games in Cuba's National Series in 2013.
