Posted May 3 Friday, 7:10, Gausman vs Jose Urena Saturday, 6:10, Soroka vs Trevor Richards Sunday, 1:10, Teheran vs Pablo Lopez Urena is the guy who hit Acuna on the elbow last year. That day Gausman told the media that Urena would have to answer for it one day. Tonight Urena will step in the box against Gausman.

Posted May 3 Touki was scratched from his AAA start last night. Could be joining the Braves bullpen in Miami tonight. Carle was sent to AAA immediately after the game yesterday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 We need to get a sweep in Miami. Wins may be hard to come by in L.A or Arizona ATL Fan in the DMV likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 They were talking about it on the broadcast yesterday. Hopefully Urena just takes his base and doesn't do anything Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 Some of the Braves media made a good point about Touki. He could be coming up to eat innings in the event Gausman or someone is ejected during this series with Urena out there. I expect the Marlins to let it happen and move on. The umps likely know what's coming too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 3 LOL guess I should drop Gausman from my fantasy team. Will be interesting to see what happens, but word was earlier Donnie Baseball didn't like how his team rolled over and lost so many games to the Braves last year. Urena should get plunked and Id count on getting retaliated against. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That will cause even more fireworks because I'm not sure the Braves would stand for anyone being hit after what happened to Acuna. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 There were no pregame warnings. If Gausman meant he'd throw at Urena it's happening. You can take the quote in different ways though, and I'd prefer other things (like maybe bombing Urena and slow trotting around the bases on a HR). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 3 We need to win this series for a different reason. I'm tired of us being under .500. ATL Fan in the DMV, Malachore, tl;dr and 1 other like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 3 Would love for Acuna to destroy one and take his time being around the bases. That might spark some actions alone. Falconsfan567, ATL Fan in the DMV and Drew4719 like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
