The Atlanta Braves take on the Washington Nationals who want to win their fourth game against them in three days.
The attack of the Braves has had and downs throughout the season, which is clear that they are exactly in the middle of MLB in MLB scored. Since the beginning of September, the Braves have scored the seventeenth most points. Michael Harris and Ozzie Albies have cooled since their scorching stripes last month.
With Sean Murphy about the IL and Kim who is now the daily SS, there have not been many question marks in the line -ups in terms of who starts other than who will get the day off to rest.
Nowadays Drake Baldwin starts again and will clean it up again and Marcell Ozuna will be back in the line -up and will hit eighth. At the beginning of the year, hearing would have sounded strange to Ozuna. Today it makes more sense with its struggles this year. Although, hit Harris still seems strange to him, especially because he has cooled down drastically this month.
Can we also take a second and talk about how Matt Olson has had a 232 WRC+ since the beginning of September? That is good for the second best in all MLB. Only Daylen Lile of the Nationals has been better during that period and he has half of the HRS. Olson is tied up with Cal Raleigh with most HRs in September with six.
The Nationals have previously confronted three players with Hurston Waldrep. CJ Abrams is Hitless in two abdominal muscles, Jacob Young has one walk and zero hits in one AB, and Luis García has one hit in his two barriers. As mentioned early, Daylen Lile has been on a scorecher, so Waldrrep has to keep an eye on him.
First field is at 4:05 AM EDT.
