Spencer Strider’s Velocity Was Down, but His Fastball Shape Is BACK | Atlanta Braves Podcast

2026 Content Survey can be found HERE: https://forms.gle/7UeTDq2pZWRuUfWa8 Host Lindsay Crosby breaks down Spencer Strider’s spring training debut (2 innings, 32 pitches, 1 run, 2 Ks) and argues concerns about his reduced fastball velocity are premature, given the tiny sample and Strider’s deliberate slow ramp-up plan. The key takeaway is that Statcast showed Strider’s fastball induced vertical break back near his 2023 level, with coaches and teammates noting the pitch is “jumping,” suggesting effectiveness can return as velocity builds. Crosby also shares an update on Hurston Waldrep’s elbow procedure, the Braves’ offense looking strong in small spring samples, highlights, and spotlights prospects JR Ritchie and John Gil. 01:53 Panic about Strider's velo is dumb 13:16 Waldrep Surgery Update 15:16 Spring Offense Impressions 22:59 Prospect Standouts Subscribe to Braves Today on audio wherever you get your podcasts Join our NEW Discord:   / discord   Follow the show on Twitter: @braves_today Follow Lindsay on Twitter: @CrosbyBaseball Read our written work: bravestoday.substack.com Send us questions: contact@bravestoday.com Get 10% off at Chinook Seedery with promo code "Braves" Get 20% off at NCase Cards with promo code "BravesToday" Rocker Chicks by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
