Atlanta Braves acquire C Dawson Dimon from the Tampa Bay Rays
The Braves made two trades during the month of June, both of which came within a day of each other. The first came on June 6 when Atlanta acquired Dimon, a 23-year-old catcher from Tampa Bay, who has appeared in a combined six games with the organization this season in the minor leagues.
Atlanta Braves acquire RHP Jacob Webb from the Arizona Diamondbacks
A day later the Braves (re-)acquired Webb from the Diamondbacks, a right-hander whom Arizona had claimed off waivers from Atlanta back on April 19. Webb has not appeared in a game in the major leagues with Atlanta this season, and owns a 5.93 ERA across 27.1 IP with Triple-A Gwinnett.
