The Atlanta Braves are monitoring the rehab progress of pitchers Spencer Schwellenbach, Hurston Waldrep, and AJ Smith-Shawver. Schwellenbach is recovering from elbow surgery with no clear return timeline, while Waldrep has begun a rehab assignment after similar surgery and could return soon. Smith-Shawver, who will start a rehab assignment soon after Tommy John surgery, remains an uncertain prospect due to limited prior MLB experience. Other injured pitchers like Joe Jimenez and Danny Young add to the team’s challenges, with unclear recovery statuses.
