Braves Injury News: Kelly Johnson to DL
Johnson to the DL
According to the AJC the Braves have put 2B Kelly Johnson on the 15 day DL with right wrist tendinitis and called up Brooks Conrad from AAA Gwinnett. This could be why Johnson was struggling and was subsequently replaced by Prado in the starting lineup. Conrad was named to the International League’s all star team before his call up.

While it is my preference for the Braves to suffer because of this, I have for too long watched Bobby Cox get the most possible out of whoever he has to work with to believe this will harm the Braves too much.
