    Kirby Yates Should Be Ready For Spring Training

    Atlanta Braves relief pitcher Kirby Yates (elbow) is not expected to have any restrictions heading into spring training. The right-hander was left off the NLDS roster after experiencing right elbow inflammation. Yates is working his way back from his second Tommy John surgery. The 35-year-old threw seven innings for the Braves this season. It's unlikely that he'll be used as a closer in Atlanta. However, he will certainly boost the bullpen next season, assuming he can stay healthy.

    Kirby Yates Continues To Make Progress

    Atlanta Braves relief pitcher Kirby Yates (elbow) threw a bullpen session before the start of the three-game series against the New York Mets on Friday, Sept. 30, and he felt fine after the session. It's too early to know whether Yates might pitch again this year, but he continues to make progress to help him feel confident that his elbow won't be a lingering issue this offseason as he distances himself from his second Tommy John surgery. He felt discomfort after tossing a scoreless inning against the Mariners on Sept. 10 and was placed on the 15-day injured list after his elbow continued to bother him when he played catch on Sept. 16. The 35-year-old shouldn't be expected to contribute out of the Braves bullpen in the postseason.

    Kirby Yates Heads Back To Injured List

    Atlanta Braves relief pitcher Kirby Yates (elbow) was placed on the 15-day IL on Friday with right elbow inflammation. Tough news for the righty, who just came back from his second Tommy John surgery in August. In his nine appearances since his return, Yates has a 5.14 ERA and 1.57 WHIP with six strikeouts in seven innings. Yates has certainly gone through the ringer in regards to injuries, and it's hard to believe that he was a top end fantasy reliever just a few years ago.
