Atlanta Bravers starting pitcher Spencer Strider made his 2025 debut last week against the Toronto Blue Jays, and he is now back on the IL with a hamstring injury. Strider was out for over a year after undergoing elbow surgery, and now he is going to have to miss even more time.

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider has an official diagnosis on his hamstring injury. According to 92.9 The Game's Grant McAuley, Strider he has a Grade 1 strain. The Braves starter is frustrated by the set back but is ready to do what it takes to return to the mound.

The Atlanta rotation is also without Reynaldo López, who's recovering from arthroscopic shoulder surgery performed in early April. Righty Scott Blewett, who was acquired in a cash trade with the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday, will make the spot start in Strider's place Tuesday.
