David O’Brien of the Athletic, who covers the Atlanta Braves had the report Tuesday on Twitter, saying:
#Braves’ Darren O’Day has ramped up from playing catch to long-tossing, but has not thrown off mound yet. It will be late August or September before he could expect to join bullpen, Snitker said.
It’s good news to find out that we may have the capability to add an arm to the bullpen late in the season. And it’s better news when you consider what O’Day could actually bring to the table… especially since the Atlanta Braves are paying his 9 million dollar salary this year.
