Steak and Sandra continue with more of their reactions to the Braves win over the Phillies, which Steak believes was a must have win, especially against a division rival. And while the win was good, they both expressed concerns about Chris Sale's performance as he gave up nine hits and five runs though 4.2 innings pitched. They then switch to the Hawks and share thoughts on their loss to the Magic on Tuesday. And while the team is locked into the play-in round both agree it is time for the team to be a more competitive team in the NBA.

During the 3pm hour of today's show Chuck & Los (in for Chernoff) talked about the Braves 0-6 start and how they can turn it around, the never ending Kirk Cousins drama with the Falcons and Braves/Dodgers tonight before being joined by our agent to the stars, Hadley Engelhard.

Reynaldo Lopez was an offseason acquisition by the Braves that had a lot of people scratching their heads. The Braves gave Lopez a 3 yr/$10 million contract to a guy with a 4.22 ERA that hasn't started more than nine games in a season since 2019. Isn't that a lot for a middle reliever? It seemed so at first, and then there was talk that Reynaldo Lopez was throwing his name in to the hat to be the Braves' fifth starter in spring training. If he actually won the job, that would make the $30 million contract seem with it, and maybe even a bargain if he pitches well. Through his first three starts in the 2024 season, Reynaldo Lopez has turned out to be much more than that. Lopez is 2-0, with a .50 ERA and eighteen strikeouts through eighteen innings, and has been the Braves' best pitcher thus far. Will these numbers maintain? No, at least not all of them. But what Lopez has accomplished through the early part of the season just proves that as the Braves continue to battle through several injuries, we have a general manager that deserves every bit of trust given to him by everyone in Braves Country, and maybe even a little more. 92.9 The Game Braves insider Grant McAuley joins Andy Bunker and Randy McMichael to discuss the options and players that Braves General Manager Alex Anthopoulos has had to use this season, and the successes that they have had.

Braves Country woke up to good news on Tuesday morning as the team announced that Ronald Acuña Jr. will not miss extended time after a closer look at his right knee and that is only meniscus irritation. David & Eric discuss what the rest of Spring Training will look like for the MVP. (08:30) Acuña's injury scare spurred criticism on players like him that participate in "Winter Ball" in their native countries during the MLB offseason. Ronald played in the Venezuelan Winter League for about a month recently and Eric points out why that can be better for a player as opposed to "taking it easy" in the winter time. David explains why it is such a draw for some players to play back home in between the World Series and Spring Training. (23:00) Hear what David thinks are the 3 most important things to happen for the Braves in this Spring Training (not related to Acuña). Hint: It has a lot to do with pitching, both starting and relief. (34:00) Get to know David Fletcher, a utility infield option that Atlanta traded for in December. Fletcher was considered to have a bad contract on the trade market, but has shown signs of optimism so far. (42:00) The conversation careens into the best pitchers they've seen in the past few decades. Can Spencer Strider reach that echelon? Learn more about your ad choices.
