Atlanta Braves Bullpen Gets Boost: Raisel Iglesias Returns, Dylan Dodd Rehabbing

The Atlanta Braves bullpen receives a significant boost with the activation of closer Raisel Iglesias from the injured list, following a two-week absence due to a sore right shoulder. Iglesias, who has been dominant this season, will now handle the ninth inning, with Robert Suarez moving back to setup duties.

The bullpen has been stretched thin recently, with starters like Reynaldo López and Didier Fuentes pitching relief to manage workloads. López will now pitch on consecutive days, and Fuentes may return to starting soon. Dylan Dodd is starting a short rehab stint with Triple-A Gwinnett and could rejoin the team before Fridays game against the Dodgers.

Aaron Bummers struggles have led to trade rumors, but his high salary may keep teams from pulling the trigger. The Braves head west to face the Dodgers, with their improved bullpen set to play a crucial role in tight games.
