Lindsay Crosby breaks down why the Braves’ MLB-worst 39% offensive ABS challenge success rate may not matter much, noting limited challenge volume, stronger defensive challenge results, and league-wide poor run values. He then maps out Atlanta’s bullpen outlook, emphasizing the importance of Robert Suárez’s return and debating postseason roles, including potential Triple-A options like Rolddy Muñoz. Finally, he previews a key weekend series vs. the injury-hit Diamondbacks, with pitching matchups and NL seeding implications.
