Sports Broadcaster with @FanDuelSNBraves @BravesRadioNet @GTAthletics and more | Loud Laugher | Go and do likewise
I’d like to sincerely thank everyone who tuned into @BravesRadioNet this weekend. Joe & @JChad680 bent over backwards to make me feel comfortable as I tried to fill some huge shoes. I’ll never forget the last three days. @IngramRadio is back tomorrow & I can’t wait to listen!
Brian Snitker indicated Eddie Rosario will primarily be used as LH pinch hitter as Eli White gets “some run.” Meanwhile Jarred Kelenic can get more consistent at-bats while playing all three OF positions with Gwinnett.
Grant Holmes complained of elbow soreness on the pitch before the line drive that hit him in the 4th. He will be placed on the IL with elbow tightness and evaluated further.
I ain’t dead yet… Join us at 9p ET on @FanDuelSNBraves featuring the Strider Slider and La Bestia (Ronald Acuña Jr)!
Wiley just said "backside" on Ronald's 2nd homer, looks like we'll need a new PxP person for the rest of this trip.
Final West Coast Swing of 2025 for the Braves. I’m tagging in for @BrandonGaudin this week on as we close out the “first half”. @CJNitkowski and I go live at 10p ET!
Ronald Acuña Jr. just announced on Sportscenter he will compete in the 2025 Home Run Derby
Thrilled to keep @BrandonGaudin’s seat warm for the night in Milwaukee! Join @CJNitkowski and I for Game 2 between @Braves & Brewers at 7:30p ET on @FanDuelSNBraves. Grant Holmes on the mound!
Go watch the Top of the 9th!
@wileyballard_ we need an interview with the lady who got Marcells Bat!
Update: He shoved
Snit says AJ is scheduled to pitch Monday so long as his arm is in good shape. AJ says the 105 MPH line drive got him on the “meaty part” of his forearm. He added “We’ll see what happens tomorrow… but right now I’m feeling pretty good.”

Snit also said a decision on tomorrow night’s starter will be made following tonight’s game. FWIW… AJ SS last pitched Wednesday with Gwinnett. He’s not currently on 26-man. Ian Anderson’s longest outing with LAA was 2 IP / 48 pitches. Blewett threw 1.1 IP (17p) on Saturday.
