As you all know by now Mike Hampton is back on the disabled list. Last night as he was warming up he strained his pectoral muscle. The southpaw will be placed on the 15-day DL retroactive to March 30th. Jo-Jo Reyes will be called up from Richmond.

Hampton’s last start happened on August 19, 2005…

Here are the top 3 pitchers in the majors in games pitched since Hampton’s last start…

1. Bob Howry - 185
2. Chad Qualls - 183
3. Jon Rauch - 182

Former Brave Tyler Yates has thrown the most for Atlanta in that stretch, taking the mound in 131 games.

Tim Hudson has started the most games for the Braves in that period, making the start 78 times and throwing 508 2/3 innings.
