@ghostof2n8@scottcoleman55 Nope, don’t really feel like there was anything they should’ve cut. I needed to use the bathroom but could never find a good time to get up 😂
@braves_today Really good article. Especially liked the strategy section at the end. One note, in the youth section of the article, it mentions Kevin Roberts Jr. He was an Orioles pick and not a Braves pick.
You just need 2 of those 4 to be going your way along with the rest of the lineup just doing what they’re doing rn to be successful.
It will be fine, eventually (I think/hope)
Acuña is hurt
Olson has 5 XBH this month and 0 since 6/12 (also 0 doubles since 6/2)
Baldwin has been the worst hitter in baseball since coming back
Austin Riley’s SLG is lower than his OBP (which isn’t high either)
Strider’s MRI didn’t show any ligament damage, just inflammation. There aren’t any current concerns about him needing surgery. Today’s visit with Dr. Meister (performed surgery in 2024) will just provide an indication of what the next steps will be. Meister will provide a timetable for recovery. By tomorrow, we’ll have an idea of when Strider could begin throwing again.
Nationals and their “I don’t care how fast you throw ball 4” claiming Lara is hilarious. (Lara is a really talented arm and he could be elite. But still funny)
The #Braves today returned RHP Hurston Waldrep from his rehabilitation assignment, reinstated him from the injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett. Atlanta also released C Maverick Handley from the roster and outrighted RHP Carlos Carrasco to the Stripers. RHP Jhancarlos Lara was claimed off waivers by the Washington Nationals.
