Braves purchased the contract of RHP Cory Rasmus from Double-A Mississippi.
Rasmus, who turned 25 earlier this month, posted a 3.68 ERA, seven saves and 62/32 K/BB ratio over 58 2/3 relief innings this season at the Double-A level. Colby's brother likely would have drawn interest in the Rule 5 Draft if he wasn't added to the 40-man roster.
