Braves' Weiss Uncertain About Ritchie's Next Start
Ritchie was scratched from his Triple-A Gwinnett start and manager Weiss is unsure if he is ready to take the ball in the following game.
Braves manager Weiss declined to confirm that Ritchie would start the next game. The uncertainty stems from Ritchie being removed from his scheduled Gwinnett start before it began. Weiss did not know whether Ritchie had started throwing prior to being held out. The situation leaves Ritchie's availability and readiness in question.
