Coats was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Coats was sent down to make room for Avisail Garcia, who's returning from the DL after a knee injury. This was Coats' second stint in the majors of 2016 and it was much more successful than the first, posting a .333/.375/.600 line in 15 at-bats compared to a .091/.286/.136 line in 22 at-bats earlier in the year. As a result, he has a chance to return after September roster expansion.
