ATLANTA (AP) -Atlanta Braves right-hander Buddy Carlyle was activated from the 15-day disabled list on Monday, and reliever Chris Resop was designated for assignment.
Carlyle was placed on the disabled list on May 10, retroactive to May 9, with a strained left neck muscle.
Carlyle is needed because the Braves are not certain Jorge Campillo, who has blisters on two fingers on his pitching hand, will be able to make his next scheduled start Thursday at Milwaukee. Carlyle made 20 starts for Atlanta in 2007, when he was 8-7 with a 5.21 ERA.
Resop was 0-1 with a 5.89 ERA in 16 games. He has 10 days to be traded or claimed by another team before he can accept a minor league assignment with the Braves.
