CoolToday Park in North Port, Florida, about an hour South of Tampa. The ballpark holds 6,200 fans, but you'll hear 1,800 today.

Apparently no TV today, so you'll have to tune in on WFOM 1230.

Here's your lineup:

RF- Ronald Acuna, Jr.
2B- Ozzie Albies
1B- Freddie Freeman
LF- Marcell Ozuna
SS- Dansby Swanson
3B- Johan Camargo
CF- Cristian Pache
DH- Abraham Almonte
C- Alex Jackson

SP- Bryse Wilson

And for the Twins:

3B- Luis Arraez
CF- Jake Cave
C- Ryan Jeffers
LF- Alex Kirilloff
1B- Willians Astudillo
RF- Kyle Garlick
DH- Trevor Larnach
2B- J.T. Riddle
SS- Nick Gordon

SP- J.A. Happ
 
I wonder if they put the grapefruit league in separate bubbles, because it seems like we only play the Twins, Red Sox, and Pirates.
 
Acuna solo shot in 3rd, Camargo with RBI in 3rd

2-0 Braves

Wilson 3 IP, 4 hits, 0 runs,

Pache with great throw cutting down runner at plate

It might be time to put Acuna in a protective bubble until opening day.

We may be watching the scenario I feared, where Pache shows he isn't quite ready, and Ender can't bounce back. At that point the Braves have 2 MLB quality OFers in Ozuna and Acuna, and a few guys who can pretend to play out there in Riley, Kipnis and Heredia. I really wish AA had brought in 1 more bat as Pache/Ender insurance.

Yeah, the bat's not ready, probably. Maybe AA does a deal before opening day.
 
Y’all are wrong about Pache - he has been barreling a bunch of balls and had at least two HR not go out because of 25 mph wind...
 
Great things today !
Pache with the amazing throw
Acuna with the 3rd home run in 3 games
And Acuna taking two walks !
Ozzie With walks and big RBI
Freddie and Ozuna and Dansby all getting hits
Bryse gave em nothing
Martin with the 2 K inning looking sharp
Pache getting two walks !
Braves win!
No injuries !

Hmmm. I kinda think Pache has looked okay. SSS applies, but his approach looks good and he has had some results... enough to think he will be at least okay offensively.
