Braves Pitching: The Strengths and Weaknesses of Atlanta's Starters

Atlanta Braves pitcher Grant Holmes faced challenges against the Cincinnati Reds, yielding four earned runs over five innings. Despite this setback, he’s shown substantial growth after stepping into the rotation. With 40 strikeouts in six starts, Holmes has showcased resilience. Meanwhile, AJ Smith-Shawver shone with eight innings of no-hit baseball earlier this week, bolstering the Braves' rotation. Although Spencer Swellenbach struggled recently, he looks to improve in his upcoming start. The team’s pitching depth is proving vital this season.
