Amid the good news of an Atlanta 8-0 lead over Florida on SportsSouth, the announcers dropped the unfortunate little bomb that Braves reliever and briefly one time closer Peter Moylan is likely out for the season. They were kind enough, at least for my purposes, to post this quote from Frank Wren:I think, realistically, we know that it's a long shot that we can get Peter back this season. But we're going to give it two weeks to see what happens.Apparently a calcium build up of some sort led to a bone spur that has "compromised the ligament in his elbow". Things did not sound anywhere near good if you're a Braves fan, so it seems safe to say that Moylan will miss the rest of the season. That means the Braves pitching staff is even more depleted than before. Rafael Soriano remains on the disabled list, Tom Glavine is banged up, Mike Hampton is Mike Hampton. Don't be surprised to see Wren make a move of some sort -- clearly Atlanta needs some MR help, and it doesn't look like it's coming from inside.
Bonus Fantasy Spin: Obviously you can drop Moylan. And it looks more and more like Manny Acosta is going to get the saves for the Braves, making him a nice add in almost any format for as long as Soriano is hurt.
