In the lead-up to Tuesday’s clash with the Philadelphia Phillies, the Atlanta Braves made a roster move by putting left-hander Dylan Lee on the 15-day injured list. This decision came into effect on September 11 due to Lee’s shoulder inflammation.
Lee, a southpaw, had a brief outing in the first game of Monday’s doubleheader, conceding two runs in just 0.1 innings. Following that performance, he was initially optioned to Gwinnett, but the recent placement on the injured list has nullified that option. With Lee’s postseason availability now uncertain, the Braves will likely turn to other relief pitchers to fill his role.
