Jared Shuster's below slot deal allowed the @Braves to draft and sign Bryce Elder in 2020. Elder's struggles opened a job for Shuster this spring. Gotta love the give and take. @IBWAA https://t.co/749w9Uq5h0

—James Bailey 3/27/2023

With Jared Shuster and Dylan Dodd making the Braves' Opening Day roster, Atlanta has now had four players from the 2020 and 2021 drafts reach the majors: Shuster (No. 25 overall), Spencer Strider (126), and Bryce Elder (156) from 2020; Dodd (96) from 2021.

Add Jared Shuster to the list of 2021 Rome Braves that’s made it to the big leagues. Michael Harris, Spencer Strider, and Bryce Elder. https://t.co/0EpdxJ6tSV

@BeaneaterB Remember that time the Braves optioned Ian Anderson and Bryce Elder to the minors because they stunk it up during spring training? Remember how that sent the message that spring training results matters? That was a lie.

I don’t think I hallucinated that Twitter thread where a woman who went to grad school at the University of Texas spilled about how Braves pitcher Bryce Elder was the ringleader of the aggressive partying jocks who made her life hell, but I can’t find it now. 1/2

—Miles Goosens 3/20/2023

The Braves only had four picks in the 2020 and used three of those picks on pitchers (Dylan Dodd was later picked in the third round of the 2021 draft): Spencer Strider Bryce Elder Jared Shuster ⬇️👀 …unreal drafting and player development by the Braves https://t.co/pjtyHMKNHJ

@MatthewRothman6 @jase1129 @DOBrienATL I think the Braves are taking spring training differently this year and that's why they optioned out both Ian Anderson and Bryce Elder and are going with unproven options like Dodd and Shuster as 5th starter. Braves seem hell bent on not having another slow start this season.

—AUTiger7222 3/15/2023

#Braves 5th starter note: Dylan Dodd is 1 month younger than Ian Anderson, 2 months older than Jared Shuster, 11 months older than Bryce Elder, and 10 months younger than Michael Soroka. While career paths certainly vary, all of these guys are basically the same age. https://t.co/VcpgmBnbSP

Also, Ian Anderson and Bryce Elder were optioned, so it sounds like the Braves fifth starter competition comes down to Dylan Dodd and Jared Shuster. Just as we all predicted.

Oh hell. Ian and Bryce Elder optioned to Gwinnett. I mean good for the Stripers... but who is Number Five?? I was joking about Jared but shit it could come true unless Soroka is the Dark Horse.

@CrystalSeth @WalkOffWalk1 I will say, I was encouraged a bit today by what I saw in the Braves/Jays game. Cavan Biggio on the first pitch of his AB against Bryce Elder was in the box at 8 seconds but had yet to get his bat in position to hit when the clock went below 8 and nothing happened.
