ATLANTA (AP) — Atlanta Braves rookie left-hander Jared Shuster was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday and will start against the San Diego Padres on Friday night.
It’s a quick opportunity for redemption after Shuster gave up four runs in the first inning of his debut in a 4-1 loss at Washington on Sunday. The Nationals’ first six batters reached base and Shuster trailed 3-0 before recording an out.
Shuster, who won a spot in the rotation by showing impressive control in spring training, issued five walks while allowing six hits in 4 2/3 innings. He was optioned to Gwinnett on Monday.
Shuster’s quick return comes as the Braves placed right-hander Collin McHugh on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation.
Braves manager Brian Snitker said the team moved quickly after McHugh’s velocity was down as he allowed one run and three hits in Wednesday’s 5-2 win at St. Louis.
“It’s something we want to get in front of,” Snitker said of McHugh. “He’s too valuable for us.”
Snitker said he’s looking for Shuster to “just rebound from the first inning of his first start because after that he threw up zeroes.”
