The Texas Rangers have traded infielder Jonathan Ornelas to the Atlanta Braves for cash considerations. This move comes after the Rangers designated Ornelas for assignment, following their waiver claim of utility player Michael Helman from the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Ornelas, who is set to turn 25 on May 26, was drafted by Texas in the third round of the 2018 MLB Draft. Over the past three seasons, he managed to appear in 30 MLB games, with four of those games in the 2025 season.
