Braves' Jake Walsh: Invited to big-league camp

Walsh signed a minor-league contract with Atlanta on Friday that includes an invitation to spring training.

The Cardinals cut Walsh loose last July after he developed a nerve issue in his pitching arm, but the right-hander is evidently healthy now. Arm problems are nothing new for the 28-year-old, but he's collected a 2.69 ERA and 25.7 percent strikeout rate in the minors when healthy.
