Braves signed INF Jordy Lara to a minor league contract.
Lara, 24, hit a disappointing .242/.308/.377 with seven homers in his first full season at Double-A with the Mariners in 2015, but that was after he batted .337/.392/.581 with 26 homers between High- and Double-A in 2014. He could make his major league debut at some point in 2016.
