Spencer Strider's return to the mound has sparked a lot of excitement among Braves fans and baseball enthusiasts alike. After a challenging recovery from elbow surgery, he made a stunning spring training debut, striking out six of the eight batters he faced and hitting impressive speeds of 98 mph. This performance has many wondering: can he reclaim his status as one of the top pitchers in the league?
With Strider's potential to dominate, the Braves are looking to fill the void left by Max Fried and Charlie Morton. But how much pressure does that put on him? Can he handle being the ace of the rotation again, especially in a competitive NL East where teams like the Phillies and Mets are gunning for the top spot?
Let’s not forget the impact of Chris Sale’s endorsement, calling Strider the best pitcher on the team. Is this a bold statement or a reflection of the current state of the Braves' pitching staff?
As we gear up for the season, what are your predictions for Strider? Will he return to his 2023 form, or will the injury setbacks hinder his performance? How do you think the Braves will fare in the NL East with a healthy Strider leading the charge?
