Atlanta Braves: 5 pitchers to replace Mike Soroka in the rotation

Atlanta Braves‘ ace Mike Soroka tore his achilles last night and is officially out for the season. The Braves are now left with one reliable starter in a rotation they hope would lead them to a world championship.

Beyond Max Fried, the Braves have question marks at every spot in the rotation. Cole Hamels is out until at least September.

Sean Newcomb has had his struggles as a starter and they have shown to start this year. Mike Foltynewicz was throwing 89.3 mph fastballs in his first start, which led to the Braves designating him for assignment.
