AI Summary
Spencer Schwellenbach remains shut down from throwing as he recovers from elbow surgery and is unlikely to return until after the All-Star break.
Braves manager Walt Weiss told reporters they'e hoping Schwellenbach is cleared to start a throwing program soon. The dynamic 25-year-old righty has been on the shelf since undergoing surgery to remove bone spurs from his pitching elbow back in mid-February. He likely won't be an option for Atlanta's rotation until after the All-Star break.
