Minter's contract was selected from Triple-A Gwinnett by the Braves on Wednesday.
Despite struggling with Gwinnett this season, Minter will get his first-ever taste of the majors. Over 17 games (15.1 innings) of Triple-A ball, the southpaw posted a 17:10 K:BB and threw for a 4.70 ERA and 1.66 WHIP. In a corresponding move, Max Fried was optioned to Gwinnett.
