Believe it or not, but next week is Opening Day as the Braves announced that Spencer Strider will take the mound in Philadelphia against Zack Wheeler on March 28th. David & Eric say why they agree with the decision as opposed to giving the honor to Max Fried for the fourth consecutive year. They then lay out what they expect the rotation to be for initial road trip at the Phillies and then the White Sox. (12:00) Reynaldo Lopez was named the 5th starter as opposed to Bryce Elder. Lopez signed a three year deal in November and last season pitched entirely out of the bullpen. His most recent start came back with the White Sox in June of 2022. (20:40) The Braves got an early jump on the final roster before Spring Training wraps up this weekend. The final bench spot went to Forrest Wall and David Fletcher was sent to Triple-A Gwinett. Wall is a twenty-eight year outfielder who made his MLB debut last summer and stole over 40 bases in each of the last two seasons in the minors. (24:00) A familiar name is returning to Truist Park as Adam Duvall surprisingly signed a one year deal with Atlanta. Duvall is in his mid-30s and his Free Agency saga is representative of what many veterans have dealt with this offseason. Eric explains why he thinks this current trend is a mistake for the sport. (38:00) A rundown of how the bullpen is shaping up for Opening Day. Among the relievers is Pierce Johnson, who the Braves traded for from the Rockies last summer. Tyler Matzek and Dylan Lee will begin the season in Atlanta while Ken Giles will first pitch in the minors and is expected to get called up later in the season. **Join us Thursday evening at approximately 10pm Eastern on our YouTube channel "755 Forever" as we react to Opening Day Learn more about your ad choices.

In this edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Braves Report podcast, beat reporter Justin Toscano and co-host Jay Black bring you what we know about Ronald Acuna's aggravated right knee.

You'll also hear from Chris Sale about solid first two outings in a Braves' uniform. Justin will also provide an update on the fifth starter battle. Later in the show, we have clubhouse conversations with Tyler Matzek and Ken Giles as they try to recover from injuries and make the Braves opening day roster.

David was down in Florida for the Braves first few Spring Training games and gives Eric's his initial impressions. AJ Smith-Shawver started on Tuesday and despite giving up a few HRs, was hitting high 90's on the radar gun. Smith-Shawaver is among the arms competing for a place in the back end of the starting rotation. (04:30) Ken Giles has impressed so far as he is fighting for a roster spot in the bullpen. Giles has barely pitched in the past few years due to injury and signed a minor league deal with Atlanta in early February. (11:00) Chris Sale brought the heat in his first Spring start as he settles in with his new team. Hear David describe his outing against the Pirates in Bradenton which included his top flight slider. (22:10) If you go to see the Braves play a road game in Florida, it's unlikely you'll see the regulars in that day's lineup. Eric explains the specifics that go into gameday prep during this time of year. The good news for the franchise is that their North Port location creates many fewer bus rides than when they played by Disney World. (27:00) Get to know the 20 year old infielder Ignacio "Nacho" Alvarez who spent last year at High-A Rome. He already has a few hits and David has been impressed by what he seen from him so far. (33:30) A scouting report on the young left handed pitcher Ray Kerr who Atlanta acquired in a December trade with the Padres. Listen to a brief explanation of his unusual journey from junior college to Braves camp. (41:00) Charlie Culberson's attempt at trying to make the Braves as a pitcher is in full swing as he turns 35 in April. (45:45) Quick conversation on the uniform controversy that has engulfed MLB. David has seen them up close and says they are as awful as everyone claims they are. They won't even tailor the pants! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Tiffany, Mike, and Beau also explain why the Falcons next quarterback has to be a social chameleon. Finally, Tiffany, Mike, and Beau close out the opening hour by reacting to the Braves playing to a 7-7 tie with the Philadelphia Phillies yesterday, AJ Smith-Shawver getting roughed up a little bit, Ken Giles looking really good in his Braves Spring Training debut against his former team, and Michael Harris II hitting another home run and staying hot. Then, Mike and Beau dive into the world of Tiffany Blackmon in TB's Timeout! On this edition of TB's Timeout, Tiffany talks about how Beau actually has given her good advice when it comes to how she should handle a DM that she got.

Ben Nicholson-Smith, co-host of the At The Letters podcast, joins JD and Ailish to discuss the Blue Jays' recent slump, Bo Bichette being demoted to seventh in the batting order, Alek Manoah's workload, the organization's plans for Yusei Kikuchi, Julian Merryweather's impending return to the Big Leagues, and the Jays' interest in free agent Ken Giles. Afterwards, Bill Ripken, former MLB infielder and current MLB Network analyst, stops by to chat about what advice he'd give Bo Bichette amidst his current struggles, his aggressive approach at the plate, the Blue Jays' recent offensive woes, and the air-tight playoff battle in the American League (28:03). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliate.

It's time for the Blue Jays to get serious about the state of their season, and that needs to start with removing Yusei Kikuchi from the rotation. A lottery ticket like Ken Giles could maybe help. So could returns from Julian Merryweather and Nate Pearson. How about a projection-busting sprint to the finish from *anybody*? Second base no longer being a black hole? The club's other starters getting back on track? George Springer looking like he's not in agony? There's a lot going on with the club, none of it particularly good at the moment. For the first time you can genuinely and fairly wonder about Ross Atkins' job security. And yet they still hold a playoff spot, they still have an outstanding lineup, they are better than they've looked. They're in an incredibly solid spot. They just have to start playing like it.

Sportsnet's Buck Martinez comments on the Blue Jays' recent play, the location of José Berríos' fastball, and if he expects George Springer to return to the lead off spot tonight after nursing his troublesome elbow (03:39). Later on, former Orioles & Blue Jays shortstop Mike Bordick previews the latest series between the AL East rivals and focuses in on Brandon Hyde's impact managing the club in Baltimore (25:44). In Barker's Back Leg Bits, Jeff & Kevin concentrate on the Blue Jays' bullpen to question if a Ken Giles reunion could help Toronto's postseason push, and share the latest on Julian Merryweather's injury rehab (39:00). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Dan Shulman checks in from Rogers Centre ahead of Jays/Guardians. The pressure is on the Jays who have been playing bad baseball in the last 2 series. Then, trying to uncover the mystery behind Jose Berrios and why he's perfect at home and then struggles so much on the road. Next up (27:00) we head to Cleveland and speak to Emmett Golden from ESPN Radio about DeShaun Watson starting a game tonight, waiting on a decision in his case and then a look at the Guardians in Toronto to face the Jays. He expects a 1 year suspension and even in that case the team is still expected to make a run for the playoffs. Finally, Ken Giles was released by the Mariners and Ben makes the case for the Jays to pursue. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliate.

Faith in the Kingdom of Heaven Apostle Ken Giles pt 1 https://lbchouston.org/online-giving/ ()There is a definite demonstration in society today, of a lack of Faith in God. Lack of Faith in His Word. Lack of Faith in the ability of Jesus and all that He has accomplished for us. When I was growing up, 70% of America went to church every Sunday. Businesses were closed so employees could go to church. Today, we are continuing our interview with Apostle Ken Giles of the Lincoln Bible Church in Hempstead, Texas is joining us on the program today. He and his wife, Pastor Sheila Giles, have released a great book that is very, very relevant for today and especially for those who ask that question, “Where is God and how come I'm not blessed?”  The book is titled, https://amzn.to/3JPC3VU (“Faith in the Kingdom of Heaven: You Can't Have One Without the Other.”) Apostle Ken, you share a “lucky rabbit's foot analogy” in your book as you discuss “Faith in God.” Can you share your thoughts on this? You also discuss how, when we order something online, we receive a “confirmation receipt.” You discuss this in light of Hebrews 11:1. Can you share that with us as well? You share, in section three, how people believe the “Big Bang Theory.” Talk a bit about that from your perspective… I loved the story that relates to God's Blessings in our lives. It all depends on “relationship” with the Father. The story you told was about a boy needing a ticket to get into a theme park and get on the rides. Can you share that with us? Apostle Ken, we are about out of time. This book, https://amzn.to/3JPC3VU (“Faith in the Kingdom of God”) is a magnificent book. How can someone receive a copy of it? Is it on Amazon? You are currently running a very, very special offer. Can you tell us about that offer our listeners can be part of? I'll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, this book by Apostle Ken and Pastor Sheila Giles is a MUST READ for the world in which we live today. There is no doubt we are living in the last of the last days, and anyone who wants to be blessed while living here MUST apply God's Word to their every day circumstances.

Faith in the Kingdom of Heaven Apostle Ken Giles pt 1 https://lbchouston.org/online-giving/ ()There is a definite demonstration in society today, of a lack of Faith in God. Lack of Faith in His Word. Lack of Faith in the ability of Jesus and all that He has accomplished for us. When I was growing up, 70% of America went to church every Sunday. Businesses were closed so employees could go to church. Today, it seems like 70% of people NEVER even grace the doors of a church. Is it any wonder our society is experiencing all of the turmoil we are seeing today?  But yet, when something terrible happens, one of the first things you hear is people asking, “How did God let this happen?” Well, to discuss this -and more – Apostle Ken Giles of the Lincoln Bible Church in Hempstead, Texas is joining us on the program today. They have released a great book that is very, very relevant for today and especially for those who ask that question, “Where is God and  how come I'm not blessed?”  The book is titled, https://amzn.to/3JPC3VU (“Faith in the Kingdom of Heaven: You Can't Have One Without the Other.”) Help me welcome back to the program, Apostle Ken Giles! Apostle Ken, why did you write this book and why do you believe it is needful right now? I was blessed to have been given a pre-published manuscript and even more blessed when you selected my review for the back cover endorsement. Folks, I'm telling you, this is a great book and I'm blessed to be a part of helping Apostle Ken and Pastor Sheila to “Get the Word Out!” about their book and their ministry. You can hear their “Kingdom Living Broadcast” on Evangelism Radio, twice per day, 7 days per week at 8am and 5pm Eastern Time onhttp://www.evanglismradio.com/ (www.evanglismradio.com) – amen! I loved your analogy of the “Wholesale Food Card” that you used to introduce the book. Can you briefly go over that? I thought that was so powerful… Your tag line, if you want to call it that, is https://amzn.to/3JPC3VU (“Faith and the Kingdom of Heaven, You Can't Have One Without the Other.”)  In the first chapter of your book, you reference how that became you tag line, if you want to call it that. Apostle, today's society is snubbing their nose at God as never before. Today, some people don't know if they are a girl, a boy or a dog it seems like. In your book, https://amzn.to/3JPC3VU (“Faith in the Kingdom of Heaven,”) you discuss this as you are explaining Genesis Chapter Three. Can you briefly explain what you covered for our listeners? Apostle Ken, you share a “lucky rabbit's foot analogy” in your book as you discuss “Faith in God.” Can you share your thoughts on this? Folks, this book by Apostle Ken and Pastor Sheila Giles is a MUST READ for the world in which we live today.

Last time I make that pun. I swear. Least it should be.A.J. Andrews kicks off a Tuesday night doubleheader with a melange of topics from the day she missed and the game today. There isn't a lot of praise, mostly sadness. Sadness at the new of Ken Giles' Tommy John surgery and what that means for his future in MLB, be it with the Jays or not. Sadness at another double-digit drubbing at the hands of the Yankees, erasing the feel-good vibes from Monday. Sadness that Wilmer Font is still on this team.

What can you do? What can you bloody do?Following another game that the Blue Jays were out of by the third inning, A.J. Andrews tries to find the silver lining, but it's hard. She's happy for Joe Panik hitting a home run. There is not much else happy, especially not with Tanner Roark, who is pitching himself out of any possible playoff plans for Toronto. Plus, with the news that Ken Giles was placed back on the IL, Andrews wonders if he has pitched his last game for the Jays, but she is bolstered by the words of a friend.Follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnJays and follow the host @A_J_Andrews!

Former collegiate head baseball coach Sky Smeltzer reflects on his 16-year career at Yavapai College in Prescott, Arizona. During his tenure, he won Coach of the Year five times, developed several current MLB players, and ended up with an overall winning percentage of .664. We discuss Sky's approach to recruiting and he provides some insight on how that has evolved. Sky relives his stint coaching the Junior USA Baseball team in Taiwan which included current big leaguers Justin Upton and Buster Posey. Sky's former players currently in the Major League also include Merrill Kelly, Kirby Yates, Kole Calhoun, and Ken Giles.

Technical difficulties can't stop us!After an apology from the editor, A.J. Andrews and Sportsnet 590's Mike Wilner continue their discussion on their respective simulated baseball campaigns! While A.J. is enjoying success with Tanner Roark, Wilner is much more favorable toward Sam Gaviglio, Ken Giles and the bullpen. One thing is certain, Chase Anderson is bad in both worlds. They also discuss throwing money at the bullpen problem by claiming Craig Stammen off waivers, and hope for the people of Buffalo.Follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnJays and follow the host @A_J_Andrews!
