While better days will happen soon, the Braves starting pitching also will remain a concern going forward. Spencer Strider will be meeting this week with the same doctor who did his elbow surgeries in the past, which is certainly not the best news. Bryce Elder is working through regression and the Braves in general are managing the staff to ensure the bullpen does not get overused. It is not an ideal situation, but hopefully reinforcements will be here soon to make things a bit easier.
The Braves best MLB hitter and minor league hitter, Drake Baldwin and Eric Hartman, both hit home runs on the farm on Saturday. Baldwin was not in action Sunday as his game was postponed, so it will be interesting to see what they means for his return at some point this week.
The White Sox are continuing to surprise, and validating they are no fluke, with series wins over the Braves and Dodgers this week.
