We sure could use a sweep.

game about to get delayed. nasty weather coming. lightning here.

 

[BhamToTexas]

Pitching getting it done again to start the game and the bats are MIA.

 

[BhamToTexas]

Holmes has been great. When do we fire the hitting coach. Everyone has regressed.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

We're the Braves.
Relax.

We'll blow this thing.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

Good grief. Schwelly now on 15 day IL. Fractured elbow.

This season just keeps going from bad to worse.

Braves ace Schwellenbach has fractured elbow

Braves ace Spencer Schwellenbach has a fractured pitching elbow, becoming the latest Atlanta starter sidelined with a long-term injury.

Hate to say it but a fractured elbow takes a lot longer than 15 days to recover.

They're saying September at the earliest before he'll be back, if he returns this season at all. Frankly, if we're completely out of it by that point (which is pretty much already guaranteed), I wouldn't even risk having him throw another inning this season.

We'll be completely a triple-A team by August. Time to cut bait and gear up for next season. Kills me to type this.

The plan is for Schwellenbach “not to throw” for 4 weeks minimum. I’m thinking more like a minimum of 6 weeks or more. Then, when he does start throwing, you can bet it will br cautious. Several weeks of rehab assignments as well.

I say shut him down and get him ready for 2026.

And after another early inning against the Angels tonight with runners in scoring position and less than two outs and unable to dent the scoreboard, I’m about ready to “shutdown” this entire Braves team.

Time to start tanking so we can get the top pic in the draft next year.

Sorry, wrong sport.

I have had a fractured elbow. Now granted I also had a broken wrist and collarbone too at the time, but it took 2 months just to heal. Then another month of physical therapy.

but you got hit by a car, right?

All schwellenbach did was throw hard for 90 pitches. He should recover in no time.

different bicycle accident. that one i flipped over the handlebars going 25 miles an hour downhill

probably a quicker recovery for him

I see Braves hitting coach Tim Hyers has now gone to the “close your eyes and swing hard in case you make contact” hitting technique.
