Or 65, apparently. One more strikeout on a six-pitch AB and that'll be it for Strider.

Final line: 4.1 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 1 BB, 8 K, 65 pitches (46 strikes), 16 (!!) swings and misses.

They mentioned in the broadcast that Iggy woke up Monday morning and said his shoulder was sore and thought it was just because he slept on it wrong.

My shoulders also ache if I sleep weird.

Operation Midnight Hammer sounds like an HBO after midnight movie

I feel like AA is holding his breathe until Strider returns and establishes himself. Can't put DF (most likely) in a permanent rotation spot without losing Suarez and/or Perez and we need the depth to make it through the season.

My birthday is this week and I’m dreaming of the best 🎁 ever

Weiss needs the time to warm up another BP arm

Speaking of, just got a new shirt

I also think they’re hoping Karinchak can grab a big league job first

I don’t think we see Didier until we get an injury or clear out the BP

I've worked at a place without real job titles and assigned responsibilities (other than the main head of company) and it becomes a mess in a hurry.

I literally play Taylor Swift daily bc my sons both react to to her music (following the lead of some of their friends). They (obviously) don't have to love it but they will not insult her music or be bothered by it in their environment.

It's hilarious because those middle managers exist as a buffer, tfg thinks he can eliminate them and keep his sanity.

In the end, he is going to end up eliminating 10% of layers and paying all of his managers 25% more.

Rest guys, Dubon seems legit and plays all over the field. Mateo comes in late for Ozzie

Fun fact: these 2 guys have now surpassed the combined 0.9 fWAR from Nick Allen and Kim from last season

brutal to suspend both a SP and position player for same number of games ($ cost aside)

Team Barrel%

10-1 means a win or a loss that I don’t want to witness. Bedtime.

If Bingo is 4 years old, that is 28 in dog years, she should be learning about tax deductions not playing with an Asparagus wand!

There's a strange phenomenon where being knowledgeable about a subject means you have to remind people that "you are correct and others are wrong" all the effing time. It's exhausting.

I've long thought that players should trade shorter lengths of team control (say down to 4 years of service time) in exchange for max contract lengths (4-5 years max) and a salary cap/floor. This would push owners to pay for those prime age/years that arbitration is suppressing.

Expanded WC is the bad only addition, a money grab & hurts trade deadline drama.

Pitch clock makes the in person game experience worse, but the TV experience better. Bizarre outcome.

I do think the draft lottery makes tanking less necessary as well.

I'd like them to push for longer CBA's.

Holy shit that ATL/TBS sleeve patch…

I honestly think fans are the biggest barrier, Braves fans are spoiled with having stars all over the field and paying him is going to make that more challenging.

It's great value, but was within range of historic comps. It honestly has pushed off the urgency of an extension and Braves might be priced out by the time he becomes a FA.

I still yell into the void that RAJ's extension was 2x the 6/$43M that Eloy got 3 weeks before it. Eloy was also supposed to be a superstar.

Unprecedented risk today, but fans of rival teams will be calling it exploitive if he becomes a superstar in 4 years.

Harris has looked good to start the season

Top six EVs from the Braves' 3/29/26 game

The Braves had the top six exit velocities for today's game, and all were outs except Drake's home run.

Average xBA: .768

Feels like Didier on Tuesday
