The Atlanta Braves have been going through it the last few weeks. It started with AJ Smith-Shawver's injury. Then Chris Sale fractured his ribs during his bid for a shutout. Spencer Schwellenbach followed not long after with an elbow fracture.
Now, Grant Holmes has landed on the 60-day IL with elbow discomfort. Atlanta's starting rotation is now without every pitcher that started the season. It's put them in a tough spot and they're practically hoping they can make it through the last two months at this point.
They made a trade on Sunday that was pretty obvious to everyone as they acquired starting pitcher Erick Fedde from the Cardinals.
