Braves' Yuli Gurriel: Will be re-introduced to third base

Gurriel will begin to play some third base at Triple-A Gwinnett, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

Gurriel is 40 and hasn't started a game at the hot corner since 2019, but Atlanta wants him prepared to play the position, if needed, following the injury to Austin Riley (hand). Signed to a minor-league contract in April, Gurriel is slashing .300/.380/.498 with 12 home runs over 72 games with Gwinnett.
