Minter to Undergo Left Hip Surgery

Braves Pitcher Faces Recovery

Atlanta Braves pitcher Tyler Minter is scheduled for surgery to address a left hip issue, according to manager Brian Snitker. Minter, who has been battling discomfort in his hip, is expected to undergo the procedure soon.

The Braves, currently 67-59, will face the Philadelphia Phillies (74-52) on Thursday at Truist Park. Despite their recent struggles, Atlanta remains hopeful for a turnaround in 2023. After winning the World Series in 2021, the Braves struggled in 2022 and are looking to rebound.

Trade Deadline Targets

With the trade deadline approaching, Atlanta is expected to be active in the market. The Braves are reportedly interested in acquiring an outfielder and a reliever to bolster their roster.

Some potential trade targets for the Braves include:

• Ian Happ (Chicago Cubs)
• Bryan Reynolds (Pittsburgh Pirates)
• Matt Olson (Oakland Athletics)
• Lance Lynn (Chicago White Sox)
• Tanner Roark (Toronto Blue Jays)

International Market

The Braves have also invested heavily in the international market in recent years. The team recently signed Cuban outfielder Lazaro Armenteros to a minor league contract.

Atlanta is betting on Armenteros becoming a future star. The 19-year-old outfielder has impressed scouts with his power and speed.
