Braves News
Martín Pérez's impressive long relief outing in the Braves' recent 4-0 shutout of the Athletics has put him squarely in the conversation for a spot in the rotation, showcasing the depth of this pitching staff that has limited opponents to just 1.5 runs per game this week. While the offense has had its bright spots, including Drake Baldwin's hot start, fans are still scratching their heads over the team’s perplexing new celebration rituals. On the injury front, Sean Murphy is inching closer to a return, generating some much-needed optimism as the Braves sit at a solid 3-1. As they gear up for another battle against the winless Athletics, the team’s momentum seems to be building, and a little clarity on the celebration front wouldn’t hurt either.
