Braves' Martin Perez: Designated for assignment

Atlanta designated Perez for assignment Sunday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

The left-hander has filled in well as a rotation piece for Atlanta, posting a 3.14 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 6:4 K:BB across 14.1 innings (three appearances). Perez will now go through the waiver process and can elect to hit free agency if he goes unclaimed.
