It’s no secret that Julio Teheran has not been the All-Star caliber pitcher that he once was for the Atlanta Braves. After his recent start in San Diego, Teheran landed on the disabled list with a right thumb contusion. This is only the second time in his career that Teheran has been on the DL. The first time was in August 2016 for a right lat strain.
I don’t think Teheran’s DL placement is a sign of being an injury prone pitcher, but rather a mosaic image of his struggles as of late.
