Digest more
The Atlanta Braves’ hopes of getting third baseman Austin Riley back in the near future have taken a step back. On Tuesday, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Gabe Burns reported that Riley experienced renewed soreness in his abdomen during a workout and is not expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list anytime soon.
Meanwhile, the Braves add another starting pitcher option to the organization off the waiver wire. According to MLB insider Ken Rosenthal, they've claimed right-hander Cal Quantrill from the Miami Marlins. He will pitch on Saturday when the Braves take on the Mets. He takes the spot of Erick Fedde that day.
Riley was placed on the IL earlier this month after suffering an abdominal strain during the Speedway Classic.
