Brian Snitker on Charlie Morton, injury updates for Spencer Strider, Kirby Yates

The Atlanta Braves will take on the New York Mets in arguably the biggest game of the season for both teams. If they Braves win, they will clinch the season series and the tiebreaker that comes along with it. Their magic number would be down to one and would need just an additional win in Miami or a Mets loss to claim their fifth straight division title.

Had he not been injured, it is possible that Spencer Strider would be on the mound for the Braves Sunday night. Instead, it will be Charlie Morton who has had an up and down season and was hit hard in his last outing in Philadelphia.
