The Braves rotation is set to receive a significant boost on Monday, as manager Brian Snitker announced that starting pitcher Mike Soroka is set to make his long-awaited return from injury, according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com.
It’s been over 1,000 days and nearly three full years since Soroka’s last MLB appearance, which took place in 2020.
The 25-year-old’s once promising career has been derailed by a series of injuries and setbacks, most notably an Achilles tear during the '20 campaign. He re-injured the Achilles while rehabbing the initial ailment, causing his extended absence from Atlanta’s roster. His last MLB game came on Aug. 3, 2020 against the Mets.
