According to FanGraphs, the Braves have a 26.2% chance of making the playoffs. Obviously, not playing in October for the first time since 2017 will suck, period; however, not seeing Spencer Schwellenbach or Chris Sale in the playoffs will make it even more difficult to stomach.

Former Saginaw Heritage star Spencer Schwellenbach recovered from a tough first inning before throwing another quality start Friday for the Atlanta Braves.

It’s Wednesday, June 11 and the Braves (28-38) are in Milwaukee to take on the Brewers (36-32). Spencer Schwellenbach is slated to take the mound for Atlanta against Chad Patrick for Milwaukee.

But, hey, at least Spencer Schwellenbach is on tap for this series finale in Milwaukee, and that’s a good thing because Schwellenbach is quite a treat to watch at his craft. On the season, the 25-year-old right-hander has an 80/84/76 line (ERA-/FIP-/xFIP-).
