Braves Right-Hander Reynaldo López Goes on Injured List with Shoulder Inflammation

López gave up five earned runs in three innings, and Atlanta said his shoulder discomfort will send him to the injured list.

  • On Tuesday, the Atlanta Braves placed right-hander Reynaldo López on the 15-day injured list following his three-inning start in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field due to right shoulder discomfort.
  • Throughout the season, López dealt with the issue, describing it as intermittent: "It would be one of those things where one outing, I wouldn't feel it- another outing, I would."
  • López will undergo an MRI to determine severity, and the Braves—leading the National League East with an 88-63 record—will likely be without the pitcher for the remainder of the regular season.
  • Right-Hander JR Ritchie, 23, was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett in a corresponding move, posting a 4.50 ERA and 1.43 WHIP across 14 appearances for the Braves this season.
  • AJ Smith-Shawver remains a rotation option, stating, "It's definitely something that I'm positioned to do, and I have the pitch count," providing depth as the Braves navigate the stretched pitching staff.
