The Opener: Braves, Bello, MLBTR Chat
Briefly

As the 2025 MLB season progresses, two key developments are catching attention. The Atlanta Braves are facing pitching challenges with Spencer Strider on the injured list due to a hamstring strain, necessitating a potential bullpen game against the Cardinals. Meanwhile, the Boston Red Sox are preparing for Brayan Bello's activation from the injured list to start against the Mariners, after his recovery from shoulder soreness. This indicates both teams are adapting their pitching strategies amid injury concerns.
It's a frustrating problem to have, particularly at a moment where depth starters like AJ Smith-Shawver and Hurston Waldrep are unavailable.
Bello is slated to be activated for this evening's game against the Mariners after being slowed by shoulder soreness in camp.
