Braves Near Spencer Strider Return, Rotation Shift Expected

News summary

The Atlanta Braves are optimistic about the imminent return of Spencer Strider, their 2023 All-Star pitcher, who has been recovering from a hamstring injury sustained after attempting a comeback from elbow surgery. Strider has recently completed successful bullpen sessions and could rejoin the starting rotation soon, potentially without a rehab assignment, which would accelerate his return timeline. His return is expected to strengthen the Braves' rotation, which has shown promise but lacks depth, with key pitchers like Chris Sale and Bryce Elder performing well while others face injuries. The Braves may adjust their rotation by moving Grant Holmes back to the bullpen to accommodate Strider, as recent performances favor other starters. While no exact date has been set for Strider's return, he is being closely evaluated and could be activated by the end of May if no setbacks occur. The team remains hopeful that having Strider back alongside other stars will enhance their chances in the competitive National League East.
