The Atlanta Braves activated right-hander Scott Blewett on Monday, one day after the reliever arrived in a trade from the Baltimore Orioles.

The Braves acquired Blewett, 29, for cash considerations. In a corresponding move, left-hander Jose Suarez was designated for assignment.

The Braves will be Blewett's third team already this season after he had two appearances each with the Minnesota Twins and Orioles. He had a combined 1.00 ERA in nine innings, with 11 strikeouts.

In 21 career major league appearances, Blewett is 1-1 with a 1.93 ERA for the Kansas City Royals (2020-21), Twins (2024-25) and Orioles.

Suarez, 27, went 1-0 with a 2.45 ERA in 7 1/3 innings over three relief appearances for Atlanta this season.
