Quietly productive. A 11-man IL is starting to matter. And a -4 run differential over the last 7. The margins are ugly.

Braves News

Drake Baldwin is soaking in the moment as he prepares for his first All-Star Game alongside his mom, a testament to the journey that began with T-ball in Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Ronald Acuña Jr. has started his Minor League rehab assignment, marking a crucial step in his recovery, fans are hopeful his return can ignite a struggling lineup that has just a 3-4 record over the last week and is dealing with the impact of 11 players on the injured list.
