According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports, Atlanta Braves infielder Alberto Callaspo rejected a trade that would have landed him with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Sources: Callaspo rejected trade. Had right under CBA to say no to any deal before June 15 as a free agent who signed last off-season.

Rosenthal reported earlier today that the Dodgers and Braves were working on a trade that involved Juan Uribe.
Source: #Dodgers getting major-league pitching in Uribe-Callaspo trade, not simply minor leaguers. Again, no major names.

It looks like Callaspo will be out of Atlanta sooner than later. The two clubs can make a trade involving Callaspo on June 15th according to Rosenthal.
#Braves could DFA Callaspo after Chris Johnson returns. Would still have right to veto trades until 6/15. If released, could join any team.
