I read the minor league recaps on Talking Chop/Battery Powered daily. He name comes up regularly. They rank him the #15 prospect in the system.

Apparently, THREE fans made it on the field and one actually pushed Acuna to the ground during the middle of the 7th inning.

Braves broadcast crew is livid. Moylan was ready to throw down.

Woah. He hit back with a bases clearing double in the 9th. Braves have 18 hits.

He had quite the night…attacked by rogue fans, five RBIs, a homer, a double, and two stolen bases.

Now only one homer away from 30/60.

The video is out. The security guard was probably who knocked him down. Still took too long for security to get there. Many of the security guys were pretty out of shape, guess not everyone in CO is hiking on the weekends.

They were all probably a little stoned, security guards and fans alike.

Braves only score 3 on 15 hits, but Morton has a great night and the bullpen was dominant. Braves take the game and the series.

Hello Braves fans. Wondering if any Braves fan posting here that follows the farm closely has opinions about the potential for a prospect.

One of my good friends is uncle to catcher Drake Baldwin. Drake played college ball at Missouri State and was drafted in the 3rd round last year by the Braves. I was just told by my friend that Drake was moved up to AA Mississippi from high A Rome yesterday. Seems like a very nice trajectory for someone that is in his first full season in the minors.

Here's how BatteryPower ranks the Braves prospects as of midseason (including 2023 draftees). Looks like they view Drake Baldwin as the 15th best prospect in the system and only catcher in the top 25. Not bad!

Vines gets the start today, his MLB debut. Lines up the rest of the starters vs the Dodgers.

He has pitched really well. He has given up only (2) hits, but one of them should have been an out. Pop fly that both Acuna and Harris apparently lost in the sky.

Ozuna, Arcia, and Pillar (5, 7, & 8 hole hitters) have all gone deep to give the Braves a 6-1 lead. Now have a franchise record with 250 homers on the season.

Hope he catches fire and pushes 40 /70.

That would be awesome.

I think he can get 70 SB easily. Just needs a good run with the long ball.

Strider bringing the 100 MPH heat…

I could see him slowing down on the basepaths some to avoid a freak injury. We will see.

I'm curious which two players get the expanded spots tomorrow. Maybe Lee and Tromp?
yawny06
How long do you want to ignore this user?

Lee for sure, but can see Tromp being the other guy.

Now Olson needs to get ahold of one.

Ump has missed a couple of those 2-0 pitches. One to Lopez and one to Olson. Big swing in a AB.
yawny06
How long do you want to ignore this user?

Yea. And neither one was really close. Olson's grin told the story…

Could have done without that.........still a three run lead at least.

Harris got one back and made the Dodgers pay for an errant throw on what should have been out #3.

Dodgers are not going to go down easy. Have to stay sharp.

Big strike out there to get Muncy after being down 3-1 in the count.

Strider through 6.

So the bullpen decides to meltdown and the bats just go to sleep for the last half of the game. I hate playing the Dodgers

Yea…we go three up three down against a guy who hasn't pitched since June.

Come on boys, get it done!
