The Atlanta Braves faced a nightmarish week with their 0-7 record and injuries, most notably Jurickson Profar's PED suspension and Reynaldo López's shoulder injury. This stretch was likened to a significant downturn in performance reminiscent of 2011. Amid concerns, fans can hope for Spencer Strider's swift return from injury as he gears up for a potential comeback after rehab appearances. Depending on the starting rotation, his return could align with a critical series against the Philadelphia Phillies, highlighting the urgency for improvement in the team's performance.
It's hard not to feel completely defeated, which should be crazy to say after just one week, but again, holy hell, what a week it was.
If you are looking for some sort of light at the end of the tunnel, however, then I have a tiny pebble of good news to offer.
Strider is scheduled to take the mound for Gwinnett tonight in what will be his second rehab appearance.
If the Braves keep their current rotation on turn, Sale would get game one vs. Philly, Elder game two, and Schwelly game three.
