Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Chad Bishop wrote (X) : "Braves manager Walt Weiss says Monday that Hurston Waldrep and Spencer Strider will both begin a throwing progression this week"
MLB .com's Mark Bowman wrote (X) : "Walt Weiss says he can't count on Spencer Strider or Hurston Waldrep pitching again this year. But both will at least start a throwing program this week. This is at least encouraging regarding the possibility of them being available next season. Waldrep got multiple opinions regrading his elbow over the past few weeks. A recent opinion led to the decision for him to begin throwing this week."
