Ender Inciarte Will Not Return To Braves For NLDS

By Jeff Todd | September 27, 2019 at 6:16pm CDT

The Braves have shut down outfielder Ender Inciarte from physical activity, manager Brian Snitker told reporters including Gabe Burns of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (via Twitter). He’s not going to be a part of the team’s upcoming divisional series roster.

Inciarte had hoped to appear in the team’s final series of the regular season. But it didn’t go well when he tested out his injured hamstring today. The decision was made that he simply won’t be ready when the NLDS gets underway on October 3rd.

Going without Inciarte isn’t a huge surprise at this point, and the impact is mitigated somewhat by the fact that Nick Markakis was able to return from his own significant injury. The club can still trot out Billy Hamilton in a run-and-glove role, too, though he’s not to Inciarte’s standard with the bat.

At this point, at least, the Atlanta organization isn’t ruling Inciarte out for a hypothetical championship series round return. But he’ll need to rest up and test the hammy once more. And it’ll take a bit of a leap of faith to activate him at that point, given the risk of aggravating the injury and the fact that he hasn’t seen live game action in months.

    He’s not gonna make or break this team. In fact, his recent play suggest he can only hurt our team more playing. Especially if he is still hurt. If he was Ender from a couple years ago, I’d want him back bad

      Ender had an OPS of .931 after he returned from injury. He’s also a gold Glover in CF. He provides a lot of value and it sucks we don’t have him, especially with two below average fielders in RF and LF.

      Being a gentleman I will not go into your jerk wad comment. Nor will I lower myself to question your baseball knowledge. Back to your couch.

    Billy Hamilton should make the team now I would think.
    Forget Ender’s injury Charlie’s injury hurts the most.
    The bench is going to be weak in October. Cervelli should be a nice bat off the bench but something tells me Joyce will be getting a lot of starts
    Keep Riley off the roster dude looks lost. I really don’t see it in him I really hope they are able to bring back Donaldson next year.

    They have to go into the playoffs acting and feeling like they’re the team to beat full of optimism and confidence. Show that dominant attitude, seems like a lot of injuries has left this team a little flat and boring as of late without that swagger.
    I know it’s late in the season and guys are trying to get healthy but don’t use this time to lose that edge and let a lesser team gain momentum on you.
