Atlanta Braves’ Young Ace Will Miss the Whole Playoff Run.

After being left off the roster for the National League Division Series, it’s been reported that Atlanta Braves young ace Kyle Wright is actually on the 60-day injured list with a shoulder issue.

It initially seemed surprising when it was reported that the Atlanta Braves were going to leave young ace Kyle Wright off the postseason roster, but now we have some more clarity.

Per Kris Willis of SB Nation:

I missed this earlier, but Kyle Wright was placed on the 60-day injured list with a right shoulder strain today. 

He won’t be an option for the remainder of the postseason

That’s a tough break for both Wright and the Braves. Wright has been on the injured list now three times this year, unable to back up his breakout 2022 season that saw him win 21 games. The Braves won’t have access to a pitcher with great stuff, which is disappointing as the competition ramps up in the playoffs.

When he did pitch this year, Wright was largely ineffective. The 28-year-old was 1-3 in just nine games and pitched to a 6.97 ERA. That was a far cry from his 21-5 and 3.19 performance in 2022, when he helped lead the Braves to a National League East championship.

Here’s hoping that he’s healthy for spring training in 2024. If he is – and if he can revert back to his previous form – he could pair with Spencer Strider and Max Fried to make one of the best rotations in all of baseball.

The Braves and Phillies will do battle in Game 1 of the NLDS on Saturday night.

First pitch from Truist Park is set for 6:07 p.m. ET as Strider pitches against lefty Ranger Suarez.

Do Iranians really support Palestine? What the videos on the ground show

The Iranian regime has taken a staunchly anti-Israel stance, supporting groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah in Lebanon, but do everyday Iranians really have the same view of the conflict between Palestine and Israel? Apparently not.

‘Many bodies are still under the rubble’: Gazans speak out after Israeli bombardment

In retaliation for Hamas attacks on October 7, Israel targeted several residential areas in Gaza, causing numerous civilian casualties. Our Palestinian Observers, who live under the constant threat of aerial bombardment, report on the situation.

The Israeli Defense Forces say they’ve bombed over 1,000 targets in Gaza since the attacks by Hamas militants on October 7, which have left over 1,000 Israelis dead.

These bombardments in Gaza have claimed more than 800 victims, according to Palestinian authorities.

‘The bombardment targeted the heart of the market’

A Gazan injured in a bombardment of the Jabalia market on October 9, who wished to remain anonymous, recounts:

I was walking towards the camp [a market] to buy things for my children. Without warning, the bombing hit the heart of the market. There were a lot of people there. It hit right in the middle of the street. It was hysteria. There were lots of dismembered bodies. It was incredible. We didn’t feel a thing. I can’t talk…

This single air strike targeting the Jabalia intersection in Gaza killed 50 people, as Madhat Hajjaj, a citizen journalist living in Gaza, told the FRANCE 24 Observers team.

 

The market in the Jabalia camp was bombed and more than 50 people died as a result of this single strike. Of course, many bodies could not be recovered and are still lying under the rubble. The Civil Defense is unable to work because it does not have the necessary equipment to evacuate the corpses. The number of missing persons is particularly high. People are coming in all the time to ask questions about their loved ones or to report them missing.

 

Gaza also has to cope with a power cut that is complicating the treatment of the wounded, according to Salameh Marouf, president of the Palestinian Medical Relief Society:

 

Hospitals receiving patients are struggling to meet their needs for electric generators. These generators need fuel, but the Israeli occupation authorities have stopped supplying fuel to the Gaza Strip.
