ATLANTA BRAVES NEWS

Stuart Fairchild - Starting Wednesday Fairchild is starting in right field and batting seventh against the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Impact Fairchild will make his 2025 debut with Atlanta on Wednesday after being acquired from the Reds on Monday. With Ronald Acuna (knee) on the IL and Jurickson Profar suspended for 80 games Monday for violating MLB's performance-enhancing policy, Fairchild should see a fair amount of starts at the outfield corners. Fairchild appeared in 94 regular-season games for Cincinnati in 2024 and slashed .215/.286/.368 with 13 stolen bases, eight home runs and 30 RBI across 233 plate appearances.

Chris Sale - Stumbles in sixth inning Sale (0-1) was charged with the loss Tuesday against the Dodgers after giving up three runs on four hits and no walks across five-plus innings. He struck out five.

Impact The veteran left-hander was dominant through five frames with just a single and two hit batsmen allowed, but three straight hits to start the sixth inning, including a two-run homer by Mookie Betts, resulted in three runs and soured the performance. Sale has now surrendered three runs over five frames in each of his first two outings of the season, which is an underwhelming start to 2025 for the reigning NL Cy Young Award winner.

Impact Petersen was dumped from the Halos' 40-man roster Monday but will reclaim a roster spot with his new organization. The 30-year-old allowed 13 earned runs in 19.2 innings between the Dodgers and Marlins last season but dominated in Triple-A to the tune of a 1.64 ERA and 0.76 WHIP across 33 frames.

Reynaldo López - Slated for surgery Lopez will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Imaging on Lopez's shoulder only revealed inflammation, but the 31-year-old righty will go under the knife to determine if he has any structural damage that needs correcting. Atlanta will have more information on the duration of Lopez's IL stint once the surgery is completed, but he shouldn't be expected to return for at least a couple of months.
