Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider's next rehab start has been scheduled. According to the Braves’ Triple-A affiliate, the Gwinnett Stripers, Strider will be on the mound for Friday’s game against the Nashville Sounds.
In his first rehab start, he pitched three innings of one-run ball, allowing two hits and a walk while striking out six. Strider threw 60 pitches, with 41 of them being for strikes (68%).
The goal is to get him stretched out that much further. Based on his pitch count per start since he started seeing live action in Spring Training, it wouldn’t be surprising to see him make the jump to 75 pitches.
