Latest News
| Jordan Walden expected next week |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/21/13) The Braves are not expected to activate Jordan Walden from the disabled list when he is first eligible Monday, but that does not mean his return is far off. According to MLB.com, Walden should be active at some point next week.
Walden made it through a few sessions of long toss Tuesday without pain, and said his shoulder is feeling better.
"[My shoulder] is strong right now," Walden said. "I played catch today and it was better than it has been almost all season."
Walden is expected to go through a bullpen session and at least one minor-league rehab assignment before he is activated. The Braves could really use the help in the bullpen, after placing two pitchers on the disabled list with season-ending elbow surgery in the last week.

| Jordan Walden not expected to be ready Monday |
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com (5/21/13) Braves reliever Jordan Walden (shoulder) is eligible to come off the disabled list Monday, but manager Fredi Gonzalez said Tuesday he probably will need more time, according to MLB.com. Walden is 1-1 with a 4.85 ERA in 14 relief outings.

| Jordan Walden feeling better |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (5/20/13) Braves reliever Jordan Walden said his injured shoulder is feeling "pretty good" after playing catch Monday, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.
Walden hopes to return off the DL when eligible Monday in Toronto.
“That’s what we’re shooting for, but it’s got to be feeling good,” Walden said. “…I just need to make sure I’m fully healthy when I come back because we already have great guys down there still. I just want to be part of it down there. I want to be able to help out Craig (Kimbrel) a little bit.”

| Jordan Walden hits the shelf |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/17/13) The Braves placed reliever Jordan Walden on the 15-day disabled list Friday, due to right shoulder inflammation. Walden has not pitched since May 11, after allowing runs in three outings in a row.
It is not clear at this time how long he is expected to be out. Walden has a 4.85 ERA in 13 innings of work in his first season in Atlanta.

| Jordan Walden in line for holds |
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com (4/8/13) With Jonny Venters sidelined, Braves reliever Jordan Walden should become the team's primary eighth inning option.
Walden struggled with back issues during the spring, but that hasn't impacted his performance to start the regular season. The Braves should present plenty of situations for holds, so Walden could be a good buy in leagues where holds matter.

| Jordan Walden began 2012 as the Angels' closer, but he recorded only one save before ceding the job to Scott Downs, who eventually gave way to Ernesto Frieri. Even though Walden saved 32 games for them as a rookie in 2011, the Angels were never completely satisfied with him in the role and were click to pull the plug on him after what ended up being his only blown save April 26. Out of the spotlight as a middle reliever, Walden posted a 2.86 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 10.9 strikeouts per nine innings in his final 39 appearances. He was especially effective after returning from a strained biceps in mid-August, posting a 2.45 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 10.6 strikeouts per nine innings in 14 appearances. Fantasy owners may not have noticed, but the Braves did, dealing former ace Tommy Hanson for the right-handed reliever this offseason. Despite the heavy price tag, Walden doesn't figure to have an increased role in a bullpen headed by Craig Kimbrel, but he could be a nice source of ERA, WHIP and strikeouts in deeper Rotisserie leagues.
