The Braves are set to have Reynaldo López undergo an arthroscopic procedure on his injured shoulder. Manager Brian Snitker revealed that the team won't know more about a potential return until after the surgery, which will assess for any structural damage. Although initial images showed only inflammation, concerns are heightened, as a midseason surgery on a pitcher's throwing shoulder usually leads to an extended recovery period. The Braves remain hopeful for López's return at some point during the season, but the timeline remains unclear pending surgical outcomes.
