The Atlanta Braves placed All-Star right-hander Reynaldo Lopez on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with right shoulder inflammation.

Lopez was removed from Tuesday's 12-0 win over the host Washington Nationals after just one inning. He threw 25 pitches, including 16 strikes, but his fastball velocity was slightly lower than average.

Lopez, 30, has an 8-5 record this season, his first with the Braves, with a 2.03 ERA and 137 strikeouts in 24 starts. In nine seasons with the Washington Nationals (2016), Chicago White Sox (2017-23), Los Angeles Angels (2023), Cleveland Guardians (2023) and Braves, Lopez is 47-54 with a 3.95 ERA.

The Braves recalled right-hander Daysbel Hernandez from Triple-A Gwinnett. Hernandez, 27, is 2-0 with a 0.82 ERA in 10 appearances with the Braves, all in relief.

The Braves also made adjustments to their infield Wednesday, selecting infielder Cavan Biggio to the major league roster, and optioning infielder Luke Williams to Triple-A. To make room for Biggio on the 40-man roster, the Braves designated RHP Jimmy Herget for assignment.

Eight games back of the National League East-leading Philadelphia Phillies, the Braves are fighting with the San Diego Padres, Arizona Diamondbacks and New York Mets for a wild-card spot.
