ATLANTA -- It’s going to be hard to convince anyone that Spencer Strider needs another rehab start. The Braves right-hander seems primed to renew the dominance he regularly displayed before undergoing season-ending right elbow surgery last year. Strider recorded 13 strikeouts and allowed just one run over 5 1/3 innings

ATLANTA -- Reynaldo López is still expected to miss most, if not all of the remainder of this season.

NORTH PORT, Fla. -- When Jurickson Profar returned to Braves camp on Wednesday, there was really only one question that mattered. Is he confident he’ll be in Atlanta’s lineup on Opening Day? “I’m very confident,” Profar said. “I’m very, very confident.”

NORTH PORT, Fla. -- Braves left fielder Jurickson Profar is expected to be ready for Opening Day after a CT scan showed just a bone bruise in his left wrist. Profar jammed the wrist while attempting to make a sliding catch during the fourth inning of Saturday’s game against the

ATLANTA -- Braves third baseman Austin Riley’s hope to play again this year evaporated on Monday, when a CT scan showed his fractured right hand won’t heal enough before the end of the postseason. “It’s not where the doctors wanted it to be,” Braves manager Brian Snitker said. Riley was
