The #Braves today selected RHP Jesse Chavez to the major league roster after optioning LHP Dylan Dodd to Triple-A Gwinnett following yesterday’s game. To make room on the 40-man roster, Atlanta transferred RHP Spencer Schwellenbach to the 60-day injured list.
The @Braves:
4/5: Strider season-ending injury
5/26: Acuña season-ending injury
8/18: Riley season-ending injury
No other MLB team has ever made the playoffs in a year where 3 of their Opening Day starters missed the final 35+ regular-season games (plus the playoffs) on the IL.
