Spencer Strider heads for further evaluation following injury concerns

Atlanta Braves pitcher Spencer Strider, who recently went on the 10-Day IL due to right arm soreness, is set for further evaluation with Dr. Keith Meister. Strider experienced pain in both his shoulder and elbow after his last start against the New York Mets. An MRI conducted while he was in Atlanta yielded inconclusive results. Braves manager Walt Weiss confirmed there are no definitive outcomes yet, and there are concerns about the need for another possible surgery, as Dr. Meister previously operated on Strider in 2024. A follow-up this week should provide more clarity on Strider's condition.
