[Braves] Austin Riley today underwent an MRI that revealed a right hand fracture. He is expected to miss approximately six to eight weeks.


Additionally, the club today returned RHP Reynaldo López from his rehabilitation assignment and reinstated him from the injured list, and optioned RHP Jimmy Herget to Triple-A Gwinnett.

  1. FUCK

    FUCK THIS SEASON.

    Also, if this team somehow makes the playoffs it will be one of my proudest fan moments. Talk about quite literally overcoming all adversity. Let’s fucking go Braves. It’s not over.

  2. I would say unbelievable, but this is totally and comfortably believable. You could not possibly make this shit up.

  3. Idk why we can’t just get a Vader set up for Riley and send him out there. Stupid modern medicine

  4. Someone comes off the long term IL and another person takes their place. It’s been an absolutely vicious year for us in terms of long term injuries.

  5. Honestly as long as the Phillies, Dodgers and Yankees don’t win the WS, I’ll consider this year a win.

  6. Dammit! I knew it was bad when I saw it happen.

    *grabs bleach* **panic because the bleach is all gone**

  7. Most the beloved stars of this team missing time. 

    Where would we be without Ozuna and Sale? 

    Matt Olson needs to get his shit together. Today. 

  8. We’re still gonna win the World Series. I don’t know how, but we’re still gonna win the World Series.

  9. a fitting end to a miserable season. not possible to win if nobody can stay on the field (not suggesting it’s his fault obviously).

  10. So, Austin will be back in the lineup by October 19, maybe a little earlier. The season continues into December, right?

  11. Welp. That’s the season. Can’t even blame the guys. Mentally, I just can’t imagine overcoming all this not to mention the actual drop in players we have now. This is just… unbelievable. I know they won’t but I’d concern just shutting all your pitchers down and let AJSS, Waldrep and Anderson get some run for next year.
