Fedde will step in as a much-needed starter who is ready to be deployed immediately. As it stands, Atlanta's starting pitchers currently on the injured list include Grant Holmes, Chris Sale, Spencer Schwellenbach, Reynaldo Lopez and AJ Smith-Shawver. All three of Holmes, Sale and Schwellenbach went down with injuries this month.

Grant Holmes has elbow tightness and will hit the IL to determine the extent of the injury. That completes the entirety of the Braves’ Opening Day rotation being on the IL. Michael Harris had a really encouraging game, but the Braves found a way to lose with some bad luck and more of the same.
