Braves Option Lillibridge to AAA Richmond

[Double062]

He's a name that's been thrown about as a potential trade target so I thought some might find this interesting.

He was optioned so that he could get regular AB's. He was filling in for Escobar who was rehabing a sore shoulder. I wouldn't read too much into this.

The real story is how he did in those games he was up.

He was 7/27 (.259) with 3 doubles, a HR, and 5 RBI. 1/6 BB/K. Not too stellar.

He had all of that production in 3 games, Litterally. He was up for 7 games and had 3 really good games and 4 Luis Hernandez games.
