    Braves Top 10 hardest hit balls of 2019

    No game, so may as well look at some early statcast data.

    Top 10 hardest hit balls by Braves so far:

    1 Ronald Acuna Jr. 112.6 - 2019-03-28 - single up the middle
    2 Josh Donaldson 112.5 - 2019-04-01 - single up the middle
    3 Nick Markakis 108.8 - 2019-03-30 - grounder to 2B
    4 Ozzie Albies 108.7 - 2019-04-01 - single to the right side
    5 Dansby Swanson 108.4 - 2019-03-30 - laser HR to LF
    6 Ronald Acuna Jr. 108.4 - 2019-04-01 - HR to CF
    7 Freddie Freeman 108.3 - 2019-04-01 - oppo double to LF
    8 Josh Donaldson 108.1 - 2019-03-31 - single to LF
    9 Tyler Flowers 107.5 - 2019-03-30 - single up the middle
    10 Dansby Swanson 107.2 - 2019-04-01 - single off pitcher

    Notes:

    Last year the 110+ mph batted balls were basically all hit by Acuna. It will be fun to see him and Donaldson hitting those bolts this season.

    The Braves aren't getting their hardest hit balls up in the air. If that changes expect to see the offense take off.

    It's great to see Swanson hitting some missiles early in the season.
