Atlanta Braves place Bryce Elder on injured list after loss to Rays

The Atlanta Braves adjusted their pitching staff on Wednesday by placing Bryce Elder on the injured list. This move followed a loss to the Tampa Bay Rays at Truist Park on September 9, 2026. The defeat marks another struggle for the team, as offensive concerns persist despite their continued playoff positioning. Elsewhere in the league, the San Francisco Giants claimed Duncan Davitt off waivers from the Atlanta Braves. Other roster activity included the New York Yankees moving Jazz Chisholm to the injured list while promoting Anthony Volpe, and the Baltimore Orioles placing Blaze Alexander on the injured list. Additionally, the Arizona Diamondbacks activated pitchers Zac Gallen and Michael Soroka from their respective injured lists. In professional football, Cleveland Guardians minority owner and NFL cornerback Denzel Ward remains a notable off-field storyline as the regular season continues.
