Mike Soroka's final start for Braves moved to Sunday
Atlanta Braves pitcher Mike Soroka's final regular-season start has been pushed to Sunday against the New York Mets.
What It Means:
Josh Tomlin will start on Wednesday in place of Soroka. This sets the 22-year-old right-hander up to start Game 3 of the NLDS for the Braves. He's thrown 169 2/3 innings in his second season in the bigs after only throwing 25 2/3 innings last year before getting shut down with a shoulder injury.
Soroka is 13-4 in 28 starts this season, with a 2.60 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, 135 strikeouts, and 39 walks.
