The Atlanta Braves provided updates on several players Saturday, including Danny Young and AJ Smith-Shawver. The team also discussed roster moves and player development.

The Atlanta Braves announced that Danny Young has been added to the 40-man roster. This move was made to protect him from being selected in the Rule 5 draft during the upcoming Winter Meetings. According to the report, this is a standard procedure for players the team wants to retain within their organization.

AJ Smith-Shawver, a Braves pitching prospect, has been cleared to resume throwing. He had previously undergone Tommy John surgery and his recovery process is progressing well. The team views Smith-Shawver as a key part of their future rotation.
