Jared Shuster, Dylan Dodd to open season in Braves rotation, per report

The final days of Spring Training are here and the Atlanta Braves’ starting rotation is starting to come into focus and there are going to be some moving parts. MLB.com’s Mark Bowman reports that the Braves will give Kyle Wright some extra time to get ready after his delayed start to the spring by pitching Jared Shuster and Dylan Dodd in the first two series of the regular season.

Per Bowman, Shuster is likely to start April 2 against the Nationals. Dodd won’t be on the Opening Day roster, but will be added before the fifth game on April 4.
