Starting to low-key hate this year's team just because of the absolute refusal to clear out the loving deadwood and give a chance to players who might actually be worth something in the years to come.

Oh yes if Riley can turn into just an MLB average 3B that is huge for us

actually more encouraged by that triple than any of his recent homers because that was outside the few inches of the plate he usually cleans up on

Fried is having a hard time of it tonight, which really isn't great considering where the bullpen's at after last night. can't expect Anderson to go 6 or more again.

Equal parts excited for Ian Anderson’s start and terrified he’ll fall apart and it’ll all have been a mirage.

For context the last Braves debut as good as his was like Derek Lilliquist or similar.

Braves' last three-homer game was Kemp in 2017, and before that Teixeira in 2008. A little spit-shine is in order, at least.

The Red Sox have tapped a guy with 1 major-league inning to his credit to be the opener tonight against Swanson / Freeman / Ozuna, all of whom are mashing right now. Precisely the setup for a scoreless first.

All too easy

after they lose this game that the other team is essentially trying to throw for tanking purposes, you think maybe the Braves will finally, mercifully, bring the Erlin experiment to a close

With that homer, Acuña just set a new Braves franchise record for leadoff homers.

That would've been only his 6th ever triple; as it is, 3 of his 5 were hit last year, which is just odd.
