"Holmes' season will continue to be mired in, 'Is he actually healthy enough to last?' His pitching has been a mixed bag so far, with a 4/2 K/BB ratio and a homer allowed in his debut against the Royals."
"His command has been a mess, but his breaking stuff has been tough to contend with. His slider has a whiff rate of about 55 percent, but if hitters stop waving at it, he could be in trouble."
The Braves have had a mixed performance on their road trip, splitting games against the Diamondbacks and Angels. Grant Holmes' pitching has been inconsistent, raising concerns about his health and command. Despite a strong whiff rate on his slider, his overall performance has been a mixed bag. The Braves need him to provide length in the game, especially with their bullpen being taxed. A win would help them avoid their first series loss of the season and ensure a winning road trip.
