Played at AA last season... likely to start there again. Austin Riley, and he is a pretty good prospect

When I was younger I worked on the field at the MS Braves during the summer, we had one guy who was pretty badass, Smith played CF do we still have him?

We got Luis gohara who was the hardest throwing lefty starter in mlb last season. Gohara is a stud... if he stays healthy, we robbed Seattle (team we traded mallex to)

Does he throw Aroldis Chapman hard?

His avg fastball was 96.3. He threw it that hard in the 7th inning too. Kid is a major talent, but an injury risk. He also does not take of his body (overweight). As a 20 year old rookie last season, he struck out 9.5 per 9 and only walked 2.45. He was extremely impressive in AA, AAA, and mlb last season.

Yep. If he were a reliever like Chapman, he could probably really air it out. He does something Chapman cannot do... sustain velocity for 100+ pitches

I’m ready to see some of these pitching prospects this year. That will make or break this team imo.

Lindgren was up and throwing in the brave bullpen. I thought he was still injured.

We’ve scored 1 run tonight, albeit a exhibition. Not impressed. I just want to see Acuna already

You're right if he stays healthy. I've followed him since I saw him pitch early last year. He can bring it for 3-4 innings, 97-98. But he drops off quickly after that. Always thought he would make a good closer. Got his and Acunas sigs on the same ball. Both of them are very approachable.

Reports say Acuna turned down $30M extension from Braves. Sounds like he’s betting on himself showing out.
