MLB-NEWS: Brian Gerald Snitker, the head coach of the Atlanta Braves, stated that the team may struggle throughout the season after the medical department confirmed the health status of four starting aces because of…..

Positive news regarding Max Fried’s injury is provided by an MLB insider.
In light of all the negative injury news the Braves have been dealing with in 2024, Jon Morosi’s most recent report is a welcome change of pace. The Braves anticipate that Max Fried’s injury is not serious, which is one of the main reasons they are not likely to acquire a starting pitcher before the trade deadline.

Assuming Max Fried can make a comeback, the pitching staff is not one of the many problems the Braves need to address in the coming days. This club, led by Max Fried, Chris Sale, and Reynaldo Lopez, has been the best at preventing runs. Following up on his outstanding 11 strikeout effort against The Mets have done more than just reinforce the rotation’s back end.

Having stated that, there are several places where the offense may benefit from assistance. One could argue that the Braves need to add at least three outfielders given that Michael Harris is still out for a few weeks. Not only can the entire bench be improved, but the middle infield could also need some attention.

For the most part of the season, Orlando Arcia has been a zero offensively, and Ozzie Albies will be out for at least seven more weeks. Top prospect Nacho Alvarez, who took Albies’ spot, hasn’t quite shown that he’s ready to play every day in the major leagues. Small sample size means that could change, but it’s vital to have some kind of insurance in case it doesn’t. Over the next three days, the Braves should make a lot of moves.
