The Atlanta Braves designated veteran first baseman Rowdy Tellez for assignment on Thursday.
Tellez, 31, signed a minor league deal on March 23 and appeared in just seven games for the Braves.
Used mostly as a pinch-hitter, he batted .200 (2-for-10) with one home run and four RBIs.
Tellez is a career .234 hitter with 123 homers and 372 RBIs in 783 games with six teams since 2018.
Atlanta recalled shortstop Jim Jarvis, 25, from Triple-A Gwinnett in a corresponding transaction.
Jarvis made his MLB debut on May 6 and was 1-for-5 with two strikeouts in two games that month.
