Braves' Player Recap: Robert Fish

Today the Braves' recap continues with reliever Robert Fish.
Fish has not made his major league appearance yet. He was acquired by the Braves in the 2011 Rule 5 draft from the Los Angeles Angels. He was in the Angels minor league system from 2006-2011 and he never put up very good numbers, which made it interesting trying to figure out why the Braves took him.
Unfortunately for Fish, he suffered a major arm injury in spring training and didn't pitch at all in the Braves' organization this past season. Fish will most likely begin next season in the minors for the Braves, either at Mississippi or Gwinnett. If he pitches good enough, he might get called up. With the emergence of Luis Avilan though, his future in Atlanta doesn't look too bright, and he might be a good trade piece.
