Perez was removed from Sunday's start against the Mets with a right triceps impingement, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Perez had struggled through 2.2 innings prior to his departure, surrendering five runs on four hits and a walk. The Braves are set to reevaluate him Monday and should offer an update on his condition. Even if the news on Perez's health is positive, it's difficult to place much trust in him at this time. He's posted a 6.04 ERA and 1.34 WHIP across 53.2 innings.
