Nothing Personal with David Samson
The Braves optioned Pfeifer to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.
After being added to the 40-man roster over the winter, Pfeifer was given the chance to vie for a spot in the Braves' Opening Day bullpen. Even though Pfeifer held batters to a .185 average while allowing just one run across 7.1 spring innings, the Braves will take advantage of the fact that he has minor-league options remaining and stash him at Triple-A for now. The lefty could make his big-league debut at some point later in 2020.
Pfeifer's contract was selected by the Braves on Tuesday.
The 27-year-old will be protected from the Rule 5 draft despite seemingly stalling out at the Triple-A level. He's spent time there in each of the last three seasons, stumbling to a 5.57 ERA in 63.0 innings. He did produce a solid 2.97 ERA in 133.1 innings overall last season, but only 7.1 of those innings came with Triple-A Gwinnett.
