Atlanta Braves: still no timetable for starting pitcher Brandon McCarthy’s return

The Atlanta Braves and General Manager Alex Anthopoulos are in a spot where decisions are going to have to be made…and soon. It’s currently July 26th, five and a half days until the MLB Trade Deadline hits. What are the Braves going to do?

Starting pitching as been a topic for debate for a while now. When the Braves went into this season, we kind of had a plethora of pitchers who could start. Now? It’s not looking that way and we’re possible looking to trade for an arm.

It’s not un-natural for MLB teams to be dealing with starting pitchers going down with injuries.
