Fantasy Baseball Rumors & MLB News
Spencer Strider (elbow) may pitch in at least one spring game
Braves right-hander Spencer Strider may pitch in at least one spring training game as he recovers from an internal brace procedure on his right elbow.
Fantasy Impact
Strider is a certainty to begin the season on the injured list but fantasy managers shouldn’t expect a lengthy delay as he is likely to return in late April. The 26-year-old made just two appearances before underdoing the knife in 2024 and most recently worked to a 3.86 ERA (albeit alongside a 2.85 FIP) and a monstrous 29.2% K-BB% across 32 starts in the 2023 campaign.
