Jarred Kelenic is out of the Braves' lineup after injuring his wrist while making a diving catch during the game against the Red Sox. X-rays were negative, but uncertainty remains about additional testing.
Brian Anderson will start for the Braves in right field since Kelenic is out due to soreness, with Adam Duvall shifting to left. Anderson was signed to a major league deal recently.
The decision to start Brian Anderson over J.P. Martinez was based on Anderson being right-handed, providing a different hitting dynamic for the team.
While specifics about Kelenic's injury remain undisclosed, the Braves have J.P. Martinez as a reserve outfielder alongside the newly signed Anderson.
