Ray Kerr recalled for Braves, making first MLB start Friday
Atlanta Braves left-handed pitcher Ray Kerr will start in Friday's series opener against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
What It Means
The Braves recalled Kerr from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday and placed AJ Smith-Shawver on the 15-day injured list with a left oblique strain. Kerr made four appearances out of the bullpen for the Braves this month, but the 29-year-old lefty will be making the first start of his MLB career on Friday in Pittsburgh.
numberFire's models project Kerr for 22.7 FanDuel points and he has a $5,500 salary on the All Day slate Friday, which makes him our top value among projected pitchers. He has a 2.89 ERA across 9 1/3 innings, with 10 strikeouts and no walks permitted.
