AJ Smith-Shawver (elbow) allowed one run over three innings on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Low-A Augusta.

Smith-Shawver struck out four and threw 41 pitches (29 strikes) in his rehab debut. The 23-year-old former top pitching prospect is working his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery and figures to be an option for Atlanta’s rotation at some point in late July or early August.
