A.J. Minter News
Atlanta Braves relief pitcher A.J. Minter (shoulder) has been activated from the 15-day injured list on Monday. The 29-year-old has been sidelined since early June due to inflammation in his left shoulder. He appears healthy now and ready to rejoin the bullpen ahead of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Before going down, Minter held a 4.91 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, with 50/10 K/BB ratio and 10 saves in 40.3 innings. The Braves will likely ease him back into his high-leverage role in the bullpen. In a corresponding move, right-hander AJ Smith-Shawver has been optioned to Triple-A.
Atlanta Braves left-hander A.J. Minter (shoulder) began his rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Gwinnett, Justin Toscano of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. The 29-year-old has been on the shelf since earlier this month after experiencing shoulder tightness. It's a good sign for Minter, and he could return in early August if there are no setbacks. Across 40.1 innings this year, the seven-year veteran owns a 4.91 ERA (2.84 FIP) but with a 1.09 WHIP, 31.6% strikeout rate, 10 saves, and 11 holds. Despite his bloated ERA, he'll remain a solid option in hold formats once he's back.
Atlanta Braves relief pitcher A.J. Minter (shoulder) tossed a bullpen session on Saturday. The 29-year-old was sent to the 15-day injured list on July 15 and it looks like he could start a rehab assignment soon. Minter initially experienced shoulder tightness versus the Tampa Bay Rays on July 8. The southpaw couldn't shake the discomfort during the All-Star break, ultimately needing a stint on the IL. Minter could feasibly return when first eligible for activation, which comes right near the end of July. The veteran carries a 4.91 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 50:10 K:BB over 40 1/3 innings this season.
