Matt Wisler will make another start, per Snitker

Matt Wisler’s phenomenal start was a surprise to pretty much everyone, and it appears that the Braves liked what they saw enough to give him another turn in the rotation.

Wisler’s seven innings of one-run ball, with just one hit allowed beyond a Todd Frazier solo homer. Most critically, Wisler issued zero walks and struck out eight opposing batters.

The Braves have an opening in their rotation as Anibal Sanchez hit the disabled list yesterday with a hamstring issue, and Luiz Gohara is still working himself back into game readiness on his rehab assignment in the minors. Until something changes with Sanchez and Gohara, it appears that the spot is Wisler’s to lose.

Wisler showed renewed verve using a different release point — his potential performance going forward adds yet another point of intrigue to what’s been a thrilling April so far for the Braves. His next start is slated to come Tuesday night in Cincinnati, where he’ll be put to a tough test given how fly balls tend to quickly leave the stratosphere in those particular confines.
