Fantasy Impact:

Ritchie allowed five runs (four earned) over five innings in a start against the Padres on Tuesday, striking out seven while walking four. The rookie right-hander will now head back to Triple-A in order for the Braves to activate veteran reliever Tyler Kinley (elbow) from the IL. Ritchie should return to the bigs at some point down the road this season.
