Cant do much about Leon both Drake and Murphy are down not that murphy can hit anyway.

Kim has only a few games back its too early to say.

Azocar gives you elite defense so im fine with that if it means Acuna can DH. But we need a better option or just let Yaz play.


This is one reason I mentioned needing a power OF bat though so if Kim does suck over a big enough sample dubon can play SS

You’re forgetting your boy, Eli White.

Yeah I do love Eli White Im definitely the biggest Eli stan of all the regular ATL thread posters.

He will be in over Azocar once he clears concussion protocol. For as much as I do like him as a player and make jokes here for fun he is imo a very good to have 4th OF. Not someone I would want to have to play almost daily if we plan to get Ronald as much DH time as we can

Riley really needed to put that in play.

Michael has been really really good against lefties this season.

2 runs and 30 pitches will work.

Also I really like batting him 6th behind Riley to get Riley as much protection as possible

You can NOT throw an 86 mph cutter that doesnt cut right down the middle and expect anything good to happen

We are fine. Drake is on the 10 day right?

Play .500 ball while he is out. With our schedule during that time we should easily be able to do this

That's quite an understatement as far as I am concerned. It's been so difficult for us to keep our players healthy

If he is going to play SS like that and not hit at all I agree 100%. One of the major benefits of getting him on a one year deal.

Dubon at SS and Eli in outfiled when he clears protocol would be better if Kim continues on this path

Placeholder until the MRI results come back.

Keep in mind, the oblique is what Murphy had issues with in the past.

Wouldnt it be a huge plus to have a sort of middle of the road catcher right now for situations like this?

Think a guy like Heim
