Braves’ Strider throws 3 innings of batting practice working toward return from oblique strain
Walt Weiss said Strider is likely to begin a rehab assignment Thursday and throw 40-45 pitches as Atlanta rebuilds his workload.
- Atlanta Braves pitcher Spencer Strider threw three innings of batting practice at Truist Park on Saturday, hitting 95 mph as he progressed toward returning to the rotation.
- Manager Walt Weiss confirmed that Strider, sidelined since March 22 with a Grade 1 left oblique strain, will begin a rehab assignment this week to rebuild his conditioning.
- Strider will likely make his first rehab start later this week, throwing 40-45 pitches; the team is on the road in Memphis, though Triple-A Gwinnett typically handles such assignments.

- The team plans to proceed cautiously with Strider's conditioning, requiring multiple rehab starts before he rejoins the rotation. "He's on the right path," Weiss said before The Braves faced Cleveland.
