Tough schedule coming up. Braves need to take care of business against a scuffling Dbacks team.



Yep, Dodgers have been on fire lately too.

Nice. I love this. Best backup catcher in the league by a mile and I wouldn't be shocked if he ultimately ends up managing the team.

Very glad to see this and that we didn’t decline his 24 option and let him go be a starter somewhere else.

Love the guy and this rotation of him and Murphy has been great.

We really don't need the starting pitching to fall apart at the same time we have a cluster of bullpen injuries.

Yep. Great to keep Travis D.

Is this Rosario’s last year of contract?

All the talk, rightfully so, about Acuna this year, but Ozzie has been straight up lethal from both sides of the plate since moving to the 2 hole.

Team option for next season that I would expect to be declined.

He may, but I think probably bench coach for Weiss first.

Riley legging out a double and Olson scoring from 1st.

I thought AA was crazy for putting two speed-first guys in the middle of the order, but it appears to be paying off.

He's the next in line obviously, but Walt is 60 in November so if it's gonna happen it'll need to be in the next couple of years.

I can see your scenario w/Walt as manager and TDA as bench coach so no he can apprentice under Walt for a few years.

And of course, Harris is the one thrown out on the bases.

So... uhhh... maybe we do need to make a move for a starter.

Little concerned that Elder might be coming back to earth a bit. When those hard hit groundballs become hard hit flyballs, it doesn't go well.

Yes, we need Max for the playoffs, healthy and strong. We don’t need him for random July games with a 10 game lead. No need to rush him
