Bryan made four straight starts in centerfield after his call up and is hitting .500 in 12 at bats. Unfortunately he suffered a left quad injury running to first base on a single Tuesday night and is currently out; considered day-to-day.

Oops! You are right. Even though he is injured he is still on the active roster. He's been added. 10 guys on the big league clubs.

Kyle had an atrocious first start in AAA after the Braves sent him back down. His second start was somewhat better. If he can regain his command, there's a dire need for callups of any functional arms in the minors, starter or reliever, that can throw strikes out of the Braves bullpen. The only reliable reliever is Josh Tomlin.

Jeren is off to a bad start. Batting under .200 with 17 strikeouts vs only 9 hits.

Sonny Gray is on the mound today for the Reds and interestingly is hitting eighth in the batting order with a hit in one at bat.

When was that? If you are talking about yesterday, he got the win, but not a complete game. He was lifted after the seventh inning.
