Atlanta Braves' ace Spencer Strider recently underwent internal brace surgery and on Friday he explained what led his elbow to deteriorate.
Per Braves' Insider Grant McAuley on social media:
Just heard from Spencer Strider, who provided clarity on issue in his elbow. A bone fragment formed in his UCL, ultimately broke loose, causing weakness in his ligament. Fortunately, the ligament was fine and led to the UCL bracing procedure. There was no need for TJ.
