Raisel Iglesias to be Activated on Tuesday
Atlanta Braves manager Walt Weiss said that right-handed reliever Raisel Iglesias (shoulder) will be activated from the 15-day injured list on Tuesday ahead of their game against the Seattle Mariners, according to Barrett Sallee of 680 The Fan. Iglesias appears ready to go for the Braves despite not going on a minor-league rehab assignment. The 36-year-old veteran was placed on the IL back on April 21 with right-shoulder inflammation. Right-hander Robert Suarez performed admirably in the closer's role for Atlanta with Iglesias sidelined, but Iglesias should return to primary closing duties for the Braves upon his return this week. The Cuban hurler stumbled last year, but he finished out the 2025 campaign strong and hadn't allowed a run in 8 2/3 innings while striking out five in eight appearances to begin this season before his shoulder setback. If Iglesias was dropped in your league, scoop him up immediately. He's rostered in 92% of Yahoo leagues.
