The Atlanta Braves have placed right-hander Spencer Strider on the 15-day injured list with a strained left oblique muscle.

The move is retroactive to Sept. 21 and Strider has not pitched since last Sunday. After that 5-2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies, Strider told the team he didn't feel right. The Braves said Tuesday they would push back Strider's next start in the hopes of avoiding a trip to the IL.
