Tyler Matzek News
Atlanta Braves left-hander Tyler Matzek (elbow) is back this year after missing all of last season and the last two postseasons while recovering from Tommy John surgery in October of 2022. Matzek threw two perfect innings with four strikeouts in a Grapefruit League game on Sunday to erase any questions about whether he'd need a short minor-league rehab stint to shake off the rust to open the season. The 33-year-old veteran reliever looks ready for the 2024 season, and his velocity has ticked up to 95 mph in his fifth spring appearance on Sunday. He has nine strikeouts, two hits allowed and two walks in 5 2/3 scoreless innings over five outings and will return to Atlanta's bullpen as an important late-inning lefty arm. Matzek isn't going to be a save option, but don't forget that he had 24 holds in 2021.
Atlanta Braves relief pitcher Tyler Matzek (elbow) was forced to miss the entire 2023 campaign after having Tommy John surgery. This was a tough blow considering how well the southpaw has pitched for Atlanta. From 2020-2022, Matzek holds a 2.92 ERA in 136 innings with the Braves. He signed a two-year deal with the team after having surgery. Matzek is set to make $1.9 million for the upcoming 2024 campaign. The Braves believe Matzek will be ready to pitch in time for spring training.
Atlanta Braves left-handed reliever Tyler Matzek (elbow) is having Tommy John surgery, according to skipper Brian Snitker. It's the reason why Matzek was left off the roster for the National League Division Series this week against the Philadelphia Phillies, and he'll likely miss all of the 2023 season as a result. The 31-year-old southpaw wasn't nearly as good in 2022 as he was during the team's World Series run last year. In 43 2/3 innings during the regular season, he went 4-2 with a 3.50 ERA (4.49 FIP), a 1.26 WHIP, one save and 36 strikeouts in his 42 relief outings for Atlanta.
