Chris Martin Expected To Miss Rest Of Playoffs
5 years agoAtlanta Braves relief pitcher Chris Martin (oblique) is expected to miss the rest of the postseason after suffering an oblique injury in Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the Cardinals on Thursday. Atlanta can replace Martin on the roster, but it's unclear who the replacement will be. It's a big loss for the Braves at the back end of the 'pen in front of Mark Melancon, who blew the save on Thursday. Max Fried, Sean Newcomb, Shane Greene and Luke Jackson will have to pick up the slack in the late innings.
