There's no 1:1 replacement for Spencer Strider, but no team is better equipped than Atlanta to lose one of the top pitchers in baseball.
The bad news was expected this past weekend, but Spencer Strider's elbow injury will sting the Atlanta Braves for the rest of the year. Strider's season — one built on promise and prestige with the young right-hander dubbed by many the best starting pitcher in baseball and the National League Cy Young favorite — is over.
For now, the Braves' record has allowed general manager Alex Anthopoulos more time to consider internal options for the starting rotation. The veteran-laden group has stuff to figure out, as well. Max Fried, the 2022 NL Cy Young runner-up who will enter free agency this offseason, is most concerning after surrendering 11 earned runs in 11.1 innings over his first three starts. The southpaw's lengthy track record suggests he'll turn things around.
