Yastrzemski Out, Hicklen In for Braves | Atlanta Braves News
Description
Braves’ Mike Yastrzemski goes on the IL with elbow inflammation, sidelined at least 10 days before the All-Star break — but don’t worry, Brewer Hicklen is ready to step in, slashing .300 with an .882 OPS in Triple-A. The roster’s got a few moves: Owen Murphy’s back up, James Karinchak’s down, Jose Azocar’s outrighted, and AJ Smith-Shawver’s official to Gwinnett. Yastrzemski was on fire — .350/.450/.600 over his last 7 games, including a grand slam — so this is a tough blow. Murphy, fresh off his debut, will help the bullpen as the Braves juggle their pitching load before the break.
