Diagnosed with Grade 2 strain
Smith-Shawver, who was placed on the 15-day injured list earlier Friday, was diagnosed with a Grade 2 left oblique strain, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
ANALYSIS
A Grade 2 strain likely means that he'll face a recovery timeline of 6-to-8 weeks. The 21-year-old righty was called up Thursday and tossed 4.1 scoreless innings in a spot start against the Cubs. Atlanta's pitching needs will likely dictate whether he remains with the big club or heads to Triple-A Gwinnett once he returns from the IL, likely sometime in July.
