Braves finalize lean Wild Card roster amid pitching shortage

Atlanta's 26-man roster has only 11 pitchers and adds Robert Suárez, Rowdy Tellez, Luke Williams, DaShawn Keirsey Jr. and Brewer Hicklen for pitching support, power and defensive flexibility. Ricky Vanasco was designated for assignment, Elieser Hernández could potentially return if he clears waivers, and Kyle Farmer was left off the roster.
