Braves Face Turmoil: Schwellenbach’s Broken Elbow, Profar’s Suspicious Return, and Verdugo’s Sudden Cut Shake Team Dynamics
Man, the Atlanta Braves have been hit with some rough luck lately. Spencer Schwellenbach, who’s been one of their bright spots on the mound, suffered a broken right elbow last weekend and is now sidelined on the 15-day injured list. It’s a tough break for the youngster, especially since the team was already missing key pitchers like Chris Sale and AJ Smith-Shawver due to injuries. On the flip side, left fielder Jurickson Profar just made his return after serving an 80-game suspension, trying to shake off the rust and help fill the void in the outfield, while struggling outfielder Alex Verdugo was just designated for assignment. Talk about a whirlwind week in Atlanta — the Braves are scrambling, and it’s clear they’re leaning heavily on their younger players to keep things afloat as they juggle these setbacks. The resilience of this squad is going to be tested big time this season.
