Braves Place A.J. Minter On 15-Day Injured List
3 months agoThe Atlanta Braves placed left-handed reliever A.J. Minter (hip) on the 15-day injured list on Monday with left-hip inflammation and recalled left-hander Dylan Lee from the minors in a corresponding move. For the second time this year, a hip injury has landed Minter on the IL. The 30-year-old veteran southpaw could miss extended time, considering his last hip injury kept him on the sidelines for a month-plus. It will be a big loss for Atlanta's struggling bullpen, as Minter has been solid this year with a 5-4 record, 2.62 ERA (4.46 FIP), a 1.02 WHIP, one save, 35 strikeouts and 11 walks in 34 1/3 innings of work. He probably will not be back for the Braves until some point in September. Lee, 30, has allowed 15 runs (10 earned) on 38 hits (four homers) while striking out 49 and walking 14 in his 45 relief innings in Atlanta in 2024.
