Then, Mike, Ali, and Beau spend some time with 92.9 The Game's own Braves insider and reporter, Grant McAuley! Beau, Mike, Ali, and Grant discuss how the injuries to Spencer Schwellenbach and Joe Jimenez change the Braves plans for their starting rotation, if Grant thinks there are more questions than answers when it comes to the Braves starting pitching rotation right now, if Grant was shocked to see Marcell Ozuna sign with the Pittsburgh Pirates on a one-year $12 million dollar deal, what Grant thinks the Braves designated hitter spot is going to look like until Sean Murphy comes back, how much pressure is on the Braves offense to consistently produce this season, if Grant thinks Matt Olson is the best first baseman in baseball right now, where the Braves stand at the shortstop position after Ha-Seong Kim had to have surgery to repair a torn tendon in his right middle finger, and what the timeline is for Kim's return.
