  Spencer Strider Starting Game 3 Against Phillies

  Atlanta Braves rookie right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) is set to start Game 3 of the National League Division Series on Friday against the Philadelphia Phillies. Strider's last start came on Sept. 18 and he's been dealing with a strained oblique muscle on his left side, so it's unclear how many innings he'll be able to go in this one. He will be a DFS pitcher to avoid on Friday's slate while coming off the injury. The 23-year-old was excellent for the Braves during the regular season, going 11-5 with a 2.67 ERA (1.83 FIP), a 0.99 WHIP, 202 strikeouts and 45 walks in 131 2/3 innings over 31 outings (20 starts), so the Braves will be hoping he can be effective for a handful of innings to start Game 3 on Friday. In four appearances (three starts), he held the Phils to three earned runs while striking out 34 in 21 1/3 innings in 2022.

  Spencer Strider Was Available In Relief In Game 2

  Atlanta Braves rookie right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) was available out of the bullpen in the Game 2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League Division Series on Wednesday. Manager Brian Snitker still hasn't announced his Game 3 starter for Friday, so it's possible that Strider will get the nod, although it's probably more likely that veteran right-hander Charlie Morton will start. Strider finished the regular season on the injured list with an oblique strain and hasn't made a start since Sept. 18, so he'd have a very short leash if he were to start in this series. The 23-year-old was excellent in his first full major-league season, though, going 11-5 with a 2.67 ERA (1.83 FIP), a 0..99 WHIP, 202 strikeouts and 45 walks in 131 2/3 frames over 31 outings (20 starts).

  Spencer Strider Included On NLDS Roster

  Atlanta Braves rookie starting pitcher Spencer Strider (oblique) is on the team's roster for the National League Division Series this week against the Philadelphia Phillies. Strider landed on the injured list in mid-September with an oblique strain, and it was uncertain if he'd be ready for the Division Series. The 23-year-old right-hander will be on the roster, but it remains to be seen if he'll be used as a starter or reliever due to his recent injury. He was excellent for the Braves in his first full MLB season in 2022, going 11-5 with a 2.67 ERA (1.83 FIP), a 0.99 WHIP, 202 strikeouts and 45 walks in 131 2/3 innings over 31 outings (20 starts). Strider went 4-0 against the Phillies this year while giving up three runs on seven hits over 21 1/3 innings in four appearances (three starts).

  Braves Sign Spencer Strider To Six-Year Extension

  The Atlanta Braves signed rookie right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) to a six-year, $75 million contract extension on Monday that runs through the 2028 season. The deal will be worth $92 million over seven years if a $22 million club option for 2029 is exercised. The Braves are optimistic that Strider will be ready for the National League Division Series against the Philadelphia Phillies, which begins on Tuesday. He threw a good bullpen session on Sunday and will be considered for the roster if he checks out fine Tuesday. Atlanta will be hoping to have Strider in this series. The 23-year-old was 4-0 against the Phillies this year with a 1.27 ERA, 34 strikeouts and seven walks in 21 1/3 innings over four games (three starts).

  Spencer Strider Plays Catch Tuesday

  Atlanta Braves right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) played catch on flat ground on Tuesday for the first time since going on the injured list. However, the Braves won't know how much Strider has progressed until he gets back on a mound as his throwing progression continues. The 23-year-old hasn't pitched since Sept. 18 due to an oblique strain, and it remains to be seen if he'll be available for the team's starting rotation if they lock up the National League East division and won't have to play until next week's NL Division Series. He has been lights-out for the Braves in his first full big-league season in 2022, going 11-5 with a 2.67 ERA (1.83 FIP), a 0.99 WHIP, 202 strikeouts and 45 walks in 131 2/3 innings over 31 outings (20 starts).

  Spencer Strider Unlikely To Be Ready Before NLDS

  Atlanta Braves right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) is expected to resume throwing again in the final days of the regular season early this week, but he's unlikely to be available before the National League Division Series that begins on Oct. 11. He first felt left oblique soreness in his Sept. 18 start against the Philadelphia Phillies and was put on the injured list when he continued to feel discomfort before beginning a side session on Sept. 23. The NL Rookie of the Year candidate has gone 11-5 this year with a 2.67 ERA (1.83 FIP), a 0.99 WHIP and a 202:45 K:BB over 131 2/3 innings and 31 outings (20 starts) this year. The good news is that after sweeping the division-rival New York Mets this past weekend, the Braves control their own destiny now as far as winning the NL East and getting a first-round bye in the playoffs.

  Spencer Strider Not Throwing Yet

  Atlanta Braves right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) has yet to resume throwing. Strider went on the injured list last week with a left oblique strain. The recovery has been slow going for the hard-throwing rookie, who felt something in the injured oblique last Friday when he attempted to throw. Atlanta may be heading into the postseason without Strider, who has been one of their better pitchers in 2022. Strider has made 20 starts this year, posting an 11-5 record, 2.67 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, and 202 strikeouts in 131 2/3 innings of work.

  Braves Place Spencer Strider On The Injured List

  The Atlanta Braves placed right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) on the 15-day injured list on Saturday with strained left oblique and optioned infielder Rylan Bannon to Triple-A Gwinnett. In corresponding moves, the team reinstated infielder Ehire Adrianza (quadriceps) from the 10-day injured list and recalled right-hander Alan Rangel. Strider's IL stint is backdated to Sept. 21. The 23-year-old will miss the rest of the regular season, which is terrible news for fantasy managers, as Strider has been excellent in his second MLB season. Strider will finish 11-5 with a 2.67 ERA (1.83 FIP), a 0.99 WHIP and 202 strikeouts in 131 2/3 innings over 31 outings (20 starts). Bryce Elder is the leading candidate to take his spot in the rotation the rest of the regular season.

  Spencer Strider Dealing With Sore Oblique

  Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider (oblique) is dealing with a sore oblique and will have his next start pushed back a few days. As a result, Bryce Elder will get the nod on Wednesday against the Washington Nationals, and left-hander Max Fried will face the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday. Strider was originally lined up to make his next start on Friday against the Phillies, but now it looks like he won't take the mound until early next week against the Nationals. The 23-year-old Strider has been a revelation for the Braves rotation this year, going 11-5 with a 2.67 ERA (1.83 FIP), a 0.99 WHIP, 202 strikeouts and 45 walks in 131 2/3 innings over 31 outings (20 starts). He'll be a must-start for fantasy managers next time he's out there.
