Braves' Ace Strider Sidelined: Bizarre Injury During Routine Catch Sparks Concern
The Atlanta Braves placed the right-hander on the 15-day IL with a strained right hamstring, which Strider reportedly suffered while playing catch prior to Monday’s matchup with the St. Louis Cardinals. He told the team that he wouldn’t be able to make his scheduled start for Tuesday.

Strider was activated from the IL last week for his 2025 debut after recovering from surgery to repair the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow a year ago. (This was an internal brace procedure, not reconstructive Tommy John surgery, which he had in 2019 while pitching at Clemson.)
