Braves' Nacho Alvarez: Bumped up to Triple-A

Atlanta promoted Alvarez from Double-A Mississippi to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

A 21-year-old shortstop, Alvarez didn't hit a home run over his 202 plate appearances with Mississippi, but he earned the promotion after going 16-for-17 on stolen-base attempts while getting on base at a .381 clip.
