Episode Notes
At the All-Star Break, the 55–40 Braves assess what can drive a second-half push: an offense rebounding from a disastrous June, but with DH and a third outfield spot as clear holes and reinforcements (Acuña Jr., Kim, Murphy) potentially nearing return. The bullpen has been a major strength despite some injuries, while the biggest concern is an unsettled rotation behind Chris Sale and the lack of a clear postseason Game 2 starter. Despite a tough remaining schedule and a surging Phillies team with one-run-game luck and lineup issues, Atlanta can still win the division, but must be willing to pay in a seller’s market to add at the deadline.
