As Spencer Strider began his rehab assignment on Saturday with Triple-A Gwinnett, it was reported that Sean Murphy is likely to start his rehab assignment with Single-A next week.

All eyes have been on Strider this spring as he rehabilitates his injured elbow. Last April, he opted to insert a brace into his elbow to stabilize his ulnar collateral ligament instead of having Tommy John surgery. Atlanta hopes to have him back in the Major League rotation in mid-April.

Former Saginaw Heritage star Spencer Schwellenbach was almost perfect in his 2025 MLB season debut Saturday. But Schwellenbach couldn’t get the win, nor could Atlanta in a 1-0 loss to the San Diego Padres. The 24-year-old right-hander allowed one hit and one walk over six innings, striking out four in shutting out San Diego.
