Braves News

The Atlanta Braves face a tough blow as Martín Pérez has been placed on the injured list with lower back inflammation, jeopardizing their rotation just as the postseason looms. This unexpected setback comes after a solid but ultimately underwhelming outing from Tyler Mahle, who allowed five runs in his last start. The Braves will rely heavily on their depth, with Elieser Hernández stepping in, but the absence of Pérez raises concerns about their pitching stability. Meanwhile, Ronald Acuña's subtle stance adjustments have rekindled his season, adding a bright spot to the lineup that has been solid in their recent 5-2 stretch. As the Braves gear up for their home finale against the Reds, fans are left wondering if the team can rally amidst these challenges and head into October with confidence.

Martín Pérez to be placed on Injured List with lower back inflammation, Elieser Hernandez recalled
We received injury news from the Braves ahead of Walt Weiss’s usual pregame press conference this afternoon. Ronnie’s fine, but Martín Pérez is not. Perez only threw 79 pitches in his last start. There didn’t appear to be any signs of struggle, so perhaps this has been an issue for some time. Hey, at least […]
