PHILADELPHIA – Williams Perez will come off the disabled list and move into Alex Wood’s spot in the Braves starting rotation Friday against the Phillies.
Wood was dealt to the Dodgers in a three-team, 13-player trade Thursday. Perez (4-0, 2.88 ERA) has been on the DL recovering from a bone bruise sustained when he wqas hi8t by a line drive at Boston six weeks ago.
With left-hander Manny Banulos on the DL with a bone spur in his elbow, the Braves’ rotation, for now, looks like this: Shelby Miller, who started Thursday against the Phillies, followed by Perez, Matt Wisler on Saturday, Julio Teheran in Sunday’s series final at Philadelphia, and Mike Foltynewicz on Monday in a home-series opener against the Giants.
