Dallas Keuchel could make Braves debut Friday

The Atlanta Braves are hopeful pitcher Dallas Keuchel will make his club debut on Friday against the Washington Nationals, per manager Brian Snitker.

What It Means:

The Braves are likely waiting for Keuchel to get through his normal between-starts bullpen session with no issues before making an official announcement. The 31-year-old left-hander made two rehab starts in the minors, allowing 3 runs on 12 hits with 13 strikeouts and 2 walks over 14 innings.

numberFire's models expect Keuchel to record a 4.42 ERA and 1.35 WHIP with 94 strikeouts and 42 walks this season.
