A.J. Minter - Expected to be activated TuesdayAtlanta is expected to activate Minter (hip) from the 15-day injured list Monday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

ImpactWhile making his third rehab appearance for Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday, Minter tossed a scoreless inning. Assuming his left hip is feeling fine coming out of the minor-league outing, he should join Atlanta for the start of its three-game series versus the Giants. Daysbel Hernandez was optioned to Gwinnett following Atlanta's 4-2 loss to the Pirates on Sunday, creating an opening in the bullpen for Minter.

A.J. Minter - Expected to be called up MondayMinter (hip) is expected to activated from the 15-day injured list Monday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

ImpactMinter threw a scoreless inning in Sunday's rehab outing with Triple-A Gwinnett and he appears set to return from the left hip inflammation that has sidelined him since May 30. Daysbel Hernandez was optioned to Gwinnett following Atlanta's 4-2 loss to the Pirates on Sunday and Minter will likely replace him in the big-league bullpen ahead of the team's three-game series at home against the Giants beginning Tuesday.

ImpactHernandez was called up June 17, tossing 6.2 scoreless innings while striking out nine batters over six appearances out of Atlanta's bullpen. The right-hander will now head back to Gwinnett, but he'll likely get another shot with the big-league club down the road this season.

Aroldis Chapman - Earns third saveChapman gave up a run on two hits in the ninth inning but still managed to pick up his third save Sunday against Atlanta.

ImpactChapman came in with a three-run lead in the ninth and worked in and out of trouble to grab his second save in his last four appearances. The veteran has taken over the Pirates ninth-inning role since losing closer David Bednar to injury on June 19th. There is still no timetable for Bednar's return from an oblique injury, so Chapman is likely looking at a few more save opportunities in the meantime.
