Braves News

The Braves' depth is taking a hit as Martín Pérez heads to the injured list with a forearm injury, leaving the rotation a little thinner. This setback comes right after an impressive 14-3 drubbing of the Mets, but the excitement of that win feels overshadowed by the uncertainties of the pitching staff. With Pérez sidelined, the Braves turned to Carlos Carrasco, hoping his experience can stabilize the rotation. Meanwhile, Michael Harris II is making headlines not just for his play but for his newfound status as a Team England superfan, adding a fun twist to the team's vibes. Despite a rocky weekend, marked by a near comeback in Sunday’s 10-9 loss, the Braves still hold a solid 52-35 record, but they must navigate this injury storm wisely as they push for the playoffs.
