The Braves won another, the Phillies and Mets each lost another, and the division lead is back to 9.0 games, after a brief swoon back down to 7.0 games. They’ll have Spencer Strider on the mound, facing Sandy Alcantara, as they go for the series win in the four-game mid-week series. The loss of Drake Baldwin (which seems like it could be short-lived) has been largely compensated for by the near-simultaneous return of Ronald Acuna. Austin Riley has been all over the place recently, but has at least been hitting a handful of homers. Once Baldwin is back, this team might really start humming with all of the talent healthy on offense and the pitching stabilized with Strider (hopefully) continuing to pitch well. This team is cruising y’all.
