The Braves have recalled outfielder Jeff Francoeur after a weekend stay with Double-A Mississippi, according to ESPN.com.

Francoeur felt betrayed by the team's decision to send him down so suddenly.

"After three years, after playing hurt, playing every day, going in every day whether I got a hit and never complaining, I just played because Bobby [Cox] kept putting me in the lineup," Francoeur told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "But I just felt like a little three-minute thing -- 'Hey, you're going down' -- I feel like after three years, I was owed a little more of an explanation. But that's Frank's deal and that's what I guess they decided to do."

Francoeur was 7-for-13 (.548) with two RBIs at Mississippi.
