The Atlanta Braves are enduring an incredibly disappointing season, sitting at 44-60 and in the midst of a five-game losing streak after the Texas Rangers completed the sweep on Sunday.
Expectations were sky-high this season after Atlanta had not missed the postseason since 2017, and much of the championship core from their 2021 World Series title run remained intact. Unfortunately, several former All-Stars have underperformed, and the starting rotation has been decimated by an abundance of injuries.
Early Sunday morning, the team announced that Grant Holmes had been placed on the 15-day injured list with elbow inflammation.
