Braves' Schwellenbach Undergoes Elbow Surgery, Out Indefinitely

Spencer Schwellenbach underwent a procedure Wednesday to remove loose bodies from his right elbow. While no official timeline is set, manager Welt Weiss hopes the right-hander can pitch in 2026, despite being expected to miss at least the first two months after a 60-day IL placement. Schwellenbach, considered a core rotation piece, could miss up to half the season, adding to Atlanta's current rotation challenges.
