The roster shuffle reflects a short-term bullpen patch with priority on Bummer’s full recovery given his 2026 contract.

Overview

  • Atlanta announced Bummer’s IL stint for left shoulder inflammation on August 24 with no timetable provided for his return.
  • Right-handers Wander Suero and Hunter Stratton were recalled to provide immediate bullpen depth.
  • Erick Fedde was released after logging a 8.10 ERA across more than 23 innings in five outings following his midseason acquisition.
  • Local reporting notes that a season-ending outcome for Bummer remains possible depending on how he responds to rest and rehab.
  • Bummer has been largely durable in recent years and is owed $9.5 million in 2026, and Chris Sale’s encouraging rehab start could prompt additional moves soon.
