Arthroscopic elbow surgery possible
Schwellenbach said Wednesday that he could require arthroscopic surgery to remove bone spurs from his right elbow, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
Análisis
Schwellenbach is already required to miss the first two months of the season after being placed on the 60-day injured list Tuesday, and a scope on his elbow would likely extend that absence. The right-hander was also sidelined for the final three months of the 2025 campaign with a small fracture in his elbow. It's unclear when a decision about surgery will be made, but it should be soon.

Placed on 60-day injured list
Atlanta placed Schwellenbach on the 60-day injured list Tuesday with right elbow inflammation, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
Análisis
Schwellenbach missed the final three months of the 2025 regular season with a small fracture in his right elbow, and he will now be shelved for most of the first two months of the 2026 campaign, at minimum. Atlanta is hopeful that the right-hander is dealing with bone spurs and will not require surgery. With Schwellenbach unavailable and Reynaldo Lopez (shoulder) and Grant Holmes (elbow) also returning from injury, Hurston Waldrep, Bryce Elder, Joey Wentz and Martin Perez (shoulder) have better opportunities at cracking the Opening Day rotation. Atlanta could also augment its rotation with an outside addition.
