Atlanta Braves left-hander Martín Pérez is likely headed to the injured list after being hit on his pitching arm by a line drive in Sunday’s 10-9 loss to the New York Mets, multiple reports say. Pérez is struck on his left forearm by a Juan Soto line drive. After the incident, Braves manager Walt Weiss said X-rays come back negative. However, Weiss adds that Pérez is expected to undergo additional testing to determine the extent of the injury. While the team’s short-term findings are limited to the negative initial imaging, Weiss indicates it is “probably an IL,” suggesting the club anticipates time away from pitching duties. The injury is described as affecting Pérez’s pitching arm, and the next medical evaluation is expected to guide the final decision on placement and timeline. The reports do not provide a return date, instead focusing on the initial reaction, the negative X-ray results, and the likelihood of further tests leading to an injured-list move.
