Braves Pitching Shake-Up | Atlanta Braves News

Braves pitching shakeup: Reynaldo Lopez sidelined with shoulder inflammation, opening the door for top prospect JR Ritchie to step into the rotation. Lopez’s versatility is temporarily gone, but his 4.54 ERA and 26 appearances this season still made him a reliable piece. Ritchie, just 23, brings promise and potential — he’s already shown flashes with an 4.50 ERA in 14 games. With Atlanta holding a 4.5-game division lead, they’ll face the Cubs tonight at 7:40 PM ET as they push toward the postseason.
