RP - Atlanta Braves - IL15
Roster %
Eligibility
A.J. Minter said the hope is he he’ll be ready after 15 days but the Braves won’t know that for some time.
Fantasy Impact
Minter added that his hip has been bothering him for a while and Atlanta didn’t think it was something that would heal with just 2-3 days of not pitching him. He'll miss at least the next couple of weeks.
The Braves placed A.J. Minter on the 15-day IL.
Fantasy Impact
Minter is dealing with left hip inflammation. He will miss at least a couple of weeks as a result. Atlanta recalled Jimmy Herget as the corresponding move.
A.J. Minter allowed one hit and one walk in a scoreless inning to notch a save in Monday's 2-0 win over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact
Despite not recording a strikeout, Minter managed to secure his first save of the season, navigating through some traffic on the bases. His performance this season has been a mixed bag with a decent ERA of 3.57 and a strong WHIP of 1.02.
A.J. Minter signed a one-year deal worth $6.22 million with the Braves to avoid arbitration.
Fantasy Impact
Minter will remain with Atlanta right before he was set to qualify for free agency. He should remain in a key role at the end of the bullpen for the Braves.
A.J. Minter (shoulder) has been activated from the 15-day IL. AJ Smith-Shawver has been optioned to Triple-A.
Fantasy Impact
Minter has been out since 7/8 due to shoulder inflammation, but completed a rehab assignment and is ready to get back out there Monday. He should continue to be a set-up man and a good source of holds for fantasy managers.
