Braves' Allan Winans pressed into action vs. Mets

The Atlanta Braves are waiting patiently for an update on ace Spencer Strider, who landed on the 15-day injured list with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow last Saturday.

Right-hander Allan Winans has been tabbed to start in place of Strider when the Braves continue a four-game series against the visiting New York Mets on Wednesday night.

Strider is being evaluated this week, and the Braves aren't expected to learn more about his prognosis until the weekend.

"I don't know what the treatment is gonna be," Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said.
