Fantasy Impact:
The Braves needed to open a spot on the 40-man roster to allow Jay Jackson to come off the 60-day IL, and Toussaint was the casualty. Once a heralded prospect, Toussaint was never able to overcome injury and ineffectiveness, and he had a 5.46 ERA in the majors in 145 innings, as well as a 6.26 ERA in Triple-A this year. Expect him to latch on somewhere else, but it's highly unlikely he'll be a fantasy-relevant player at any time soon, or possibly ever.
