00:00
let's start with an Atlanta Brave pitcher uh he may be on the 15-day IL but I think that's just
00:06
I don't even know what the word is I think a 60-day IL and you could say goodbye to this
00:10
pitcher but I'll let you take it from here yeah look it's a torn UCL for AJ Smith-Shauver and
00:16
that is uh the end of his season and most of next season too probably I mean we'll see how long he
00:23
will take to rehab and come back it's a shame too he was right at the top of that list for
00:27
naturally rookie of the year and I feel like we were just having this conversation uh at one point
00:32
which is at any given moment one of these can change right an injury changes the whole dynamic
00:37
of a race for these awards and here we go just a week later we're right back in that spot here and
00:42
um it's unfortunate uh AJ has pitched pretty well here for the Atlanta Braves and as I mentioned
00:46
before now it's a matter of where do you go next and I don't think you can go back to the Bryce
00:51
Elder well again he just keeps beating around the ballpark uh you're gonna have to go out there and
00:56
make a deal especially because Ronaldo Lopez got hurt too so they're down a couple starters right
01:01
now and I'm sure I'm so confident that Strider is going to get back to being Strider sooner than
01:06
later but I believe he's going for AJ Smith-Shauver this brace procedure too which you're doing a lot
01:12
more of now uh so it's it was obvious that this is what happened to people thought at first that he
01:18
had an issue because he got hit by a ball that came back at him and they stayed and I think it was
01:23
the very next batter where the pop happened in the elbow and his he had struggled in the previous
01:28
start too but people didn't make too much out of it you know ups and downs of baseball you have to
01:32
wonder was the elbow bothering him then was he trying to push through it so here we go uh unfortunately
01:37
a tough injury here for fantasy managers and again you're looking at guys like Lance McCullers off
01:43
the waiver wire you're looking at is Bubba Chandler available hopefully he'll be back uh up or should be
01:48
making his debut you would hope sooner than later in the next week or so so um maybe a Kyle Harrison
01:54
off the waiver wire potentially those are the kind of pictures you're looking at to somehow patch things
02:00
together but this is a huge blow to the Braves and fantasy managers make no mistake about it
02:03
to the background the way out and to the background so um but let's go with that.
02:07
It feels good so maybe you're doing it here we're gonna go with it.
