Mike Soroka To Make Next Rehab Start Sunday
2 years agoAtlanta Braves right-hander Mike Soroka (Achilles) will make his second minor league rehab start on Sunday for Triple-A Gwinnett. Soroka said he's feeling "great" after his first rehab start on Tuesday for High-A Rome, when he threw four scoreless innings on 45 pitches. The Braves aren't going to rush the 25-year-old back since he hasn't pitched in the majors since 2020, but he could be a difference-maker for Atlanta if he's able to return later this year or for the postseason. In his last full season in 2019 when he was an All-Star for the first time, Soroka went 13-4 with a 2.68 ERA (3.45 FIP), a 1.11 WHIP and a 142:41 K:BB in 174 2/3 innings over 29 starts. If you have room on your roster, he's definitely worth stashing if he's available on the waiver wire.
