The Braves could receive plenty of help in August.

Left-hander Tucker Davidson, sidelined with a forearm strain, was placed on the 60-day injured list Thursday, making him the latest player who could potentially return in August.

Catcher Travis d’Arnaud (thumb) and starter Huascar Ynoa (hand) could both potentially come back in the month. Even starter Mike Soroka, who’s experienced multiple setbacks in his recovery from an Achilles tear, could return at the end of August.

Of course, there are no guarantees with any of the above players. Each of them would likely be limited in their returns (if they do come back). There’s also the possibility it could be too little too late. The Braves entered Friday at 35-39, fourth place in the National League East and 5-1/2 games behind the Mets.

Nonetheless, the team is hopeful it’ll have reinforcements coming later in the summer. And if it’s still in the postseason hunt, any of those individuals returning would be a boost.
