"The MRI showed only inflammation with no structural damage to his shoulder, which is a positive sign for the Braves regarding Raisel Iglesias's health."
"Iglesias has pitched in eight games this season, tossing 8.2 shut-out innings while striking out 11 batters and collecting five saves."
"Robert Suarez, who led the National League in saves with the San Diego Padres last season, will likely serve as closer while Iglesias is out."
Raisel Iglesias underwent an MRI that revealed only inflammation in his shoulder, with no structural damage. The Atlanta Braves are optimistic that Iglesias will have a limited stay on the injured list. He last pitched on April 19 and has appeared in eight games this season, achieving 8.2 shut-out innings, striking out 11 batters, and securing five saves. In his absence, Robert Suarez, a free agent who led the National League in saves last season, is expected to take over as closer.
