The Braves recalled right-hander Ryan Weber from Triple-A Gwinnett Tuesday to take the bullpen spot of Jason Grilli, who was traded to the Toronto Blue Jays for a minor league pitcher.

It’s the second big-league stint this season for Weber, who had a 10.57 ERA in three relief appearances for the Braves in late April. He was 0-2 with a 2.81 ERA in 11 games (three starts) for Gwinnett.

Weber, 25, made his major league debut in 2015 and went 0-3 with a 4.76 ERA in five starts for Atlanta.
