Charlie Culberson Stats

The Atlanta Braves selected the contract of infielder Charlie Culberson from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday and transferred infielder Ehire Adrianza (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move. Culberson will come up to provide veteran infield depth for the weekend after the Braves optioned rookie Braden Shewmake to Gwinnett on Thursday. The 34-year-old played with Atlanta from 2019-21 and will get another shot for the organization in a bench role for the time being. Last year with the Texas Rangers, Culberson hit .283 (29-for-115) with six doubles, two home runs, 12 RBI, two stolen bases and 19 runs scored in 68 games. He's unlikely to provide meaningful numbers, even in the deepest of fantasy leagues.

The Atlanta Braves have signed infielder Charlie Culberson to a minor-league deal. The 33-year-old was released by the Tampa Bay Rays a week ago. He'll make his return to Atlanta after spending 2018-2020 with the team. Since then, Culberson has served in a bench role with the Texas Rangers. The expectation is that he'll head to Triple-A and serve as additional depth for the organization. It's unlikely that Culberson has any fantasy value even if he makes it to the Braves roster.

The Tampa Bay Rays signed free-agent veteran infielder/outfielder Charlie Culberson to a minor-league deal on Thursday that includes an invite to major-league spring training, according to sources. The 33-year-old has played parts of 10 seasons in the majors, most recently with the Texas Rangers and Atlanta Braves. In 68 games with Texas last year, he hit .252/.283/.357 with a .640 OPS, two home runs, 12 RBI, 19 runs scored and two stolen bases in 124 plate appearances. Culberson can pretty much play anywhere, giving Tampa the positional versatility that they like, but he'll simply serve as utility depth for the Rays in 2023 and is unlikely to make any kind of impact in fantasy in mixed leagues. He has a career slash line of .248/.293/.386 with a .679 OPS, 30 home runs, 145 RBI and 21 steals in 585 career big-league games.
