Braves beat the Red Sox 3-1. Morton went 7 innings allowing 3 hits and striking out 7, and Panda 3-4 in DH spot.

Seems excessive for sure.
Any vibrations from a bat when making contact with the ball could delay the healing process I suppose.

Ozuna has been arrested on one count of family violence and one count on aggravated assault with strangulation.

Very disappointing news. I feel worse for the victim. This likely ends his Braves career.

She was arrested last June for abusing him. It's a toxic relationship that should end but will possibly carry over to any future relationship.
We'll see what MLB and the Braves do.

His wife busted him in the face with a soap dish and was arrested for domestic battery last June. Toxic seems to be a rather appropriate way to describe the marriage. Hopefully they get some serious help. I’m hoping Ozuna will be in a Braves uni again but not super optimistic tbh..

Sucks even worse in the midst of a down year trying to piece it back together with last years MVP and this years MVP and we still can’t figure it out... ahhh smdh.

I wonder what a trade for Mancini, would cost the Braves? The O's are in last place and the worst team in the AL, they aren't going anywhere for several years.

The O's are pathetic. Unfortunately, I'm still a fan. They're still years away from competing. They would just want prospects for Mancini. But they might want to keep him because he's by far their most liked player - especially with him coming back from cancer. I think if the Braves offered Michael Harris, the O's would say yes. I think they'd also have some interest in Camargo.

IDK, some are now ranking Michael Harris ahead of Waters and behind Pache, as far as Braves OF prospects. I haven't seen Harris play, I favor Waters.

I'd do Camargo, Trey Harris, Greyson Jenista and B Wilson/ T Davidson for Mancini and Scott or Fry.

I think the O's might go for that - for the upside with either Wilson or Davidson. They'd rather trade Fry than Scott, because Scott's a lefty that sometimes reaches 99 MPH and has a very good slider - which he throws more than his fastball. Unfortunately, he does not have great control of his fastball, but they keep hoping it'll come.

Freddie Freeman discusses his ‘frustrating’ season




https://www.ajc.com/sports/atlanta-braves/braves-1b-freddie-freeman-discusses-his-frustrating-season/X4T6WOGPAJEJVOIDFAI7ONLGB4/?ecmp=braves&utm_medium=social&utm_source=braves_fb

“It’s been frustrating,” Freeman said Friday. “I felt good multiple times during the season. And like I (said) before, it feels like there’s one big glove for me out there. I was talking to my dad last night and he was like, ‘Freddie, you’ve got to be positive.’ That’s the hardest thing in this game. You go up there and hit ball hard, you make a right turn back to the dugout. So he’s just being positive. He goes, ‘It can’t statistically stay like this for six months.’ He’s like, ‘Freddie, I think you’re like 30 balls hard hit.’ He’s trying to give me all the numbers that make me feel better. Being a dad, you know. I’m just staring at him on the FaceTime, like, fuming through the phone because I don’t want to hear that. I don’t. I’d rather hit the ball 42 mph and get a hit.”
