Braves Face Turmoil: Schwellenbach’s Broken Elbow, Profar’s Suspicious Return, and Verdugo’s Sudden Cut Shake Team Dynamics
“I’m responsible,” said Profar, who addressed his teammates Wednesday. “There’s there’s no excuses. I’m responsible for what goes into my body.”
The 32-year-old was an All-Star and won a Silver Slugger last season when he batted .280 and set career highs with 24 homers and 85 RBIs for San Diego. He signed a three-year, $42 million contract with the Braves in the offseason.
In his absence, Braves left fielders entered Wednesday last in the major leagues with two home runs and a .523 OPS.
Verdugo agreed to a $1.5 million, one-year contract late in spring training. The 29-year-old made his big league season debut on April 18 and hit .239 with no homers and 12 RBIs in 56 games.
