It was only a matter of time. We need him as healthy as possible for the postseason.

Don't mind this at all. He's been fine recently, but I'd rather have him at 100% for the playoffs as our potential #4 starter. We had to take somebody out of the rotation anyways and with the way Minor is pitching, this is probably the best solution.

The only thing that sucks is his rotation spot was scheduled to come up Tuesday when the Braves come to Milwaukee and I wanted to be there for the Ben Sheets homecoming. He's scheduled to come off the DL around that time.

Return to Atlanta Braves
