Unknøwn Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 We are officially 2 weeks away from Opening Day. Braves open March 30th in DC. Unfortunately it is a day game with a 1:05 first pitch. Braves open with 3 in DC and 3 in St Louis. The home opener is April 6 vs San Diego. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Snit said Wright and Soroka are almost ready to make some starts. Wright threw 2 innings in a minor league exhibition and felt fine. Snit said Soroka has progressed well also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K26dp Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Wright never was ruled out of making a turn, if Soroka gets on the mound quickly and knocks off the rust, I wonder if he could take that 5th spot? Seems unlikely at this point, but it doesn't sound like he's much further back than Wright. JDFIII 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great story of perseverance, and a personal success for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K26dp Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Shuster may have won himself a spot today. RHP Nick Anderson added to an impressive spring. He came on in the 5th with one on and no outs and immediately got a double play and a pop out to end the inning, then gave up a walk and struck out one in a scoreless 6th. He's got options so he may go to Gwinnett anyway, but he looks like one of the best relief arms in camp. His stuff looks filthy. labradford 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Shuster and Dodd in the mid-90s now after ironing out some mechanical inefficiencies. labradford 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Grissom is not at SS for the fifth straight game. Snitker had some he wanted to get a good look at Shewmake. According to DOB the loser of the SS battle between Shewmake and Grissom will be headed to AAA. They won't make either sit on the bench. They have Arcia to backup SS. It's basically down to how comfortable they are with Grissom's glove. Shewmake is the weaker bat but strong defense is his thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of rn there is uncertainty at SS, LF and bottom of rotation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
