Soler was in Buffalo and a late deal. I doubt he is here. Duvall was in Miami and was made much earlier. I somewhat expect him to be there.

Duvall is the only one of the #Braves trade acquisitions expected to be here for tonight's game, but Snitker said they all would likely join the team by Saturday. He's got Duvall in left field tonight if he gets here.
 
That lineup looks way better than what we’ve been running out there. It’ll be even better when TDA gets back and Smith won’t be seen anymore.

Surprised Duvall isn't in RF and Pederson in LF. Duvall has been in RF all season for the Marlins and Pederson was primarily in LF for the Cubs. I know that's not an apples-to-apples comparison, but it just seems odd. But really, who am I to question Snitker?
 
MLB Lineups project Duvall and Soler in starting lineup? Not confirmed, but I gotta think that's too ambitious. Here's what's posted as of 4:55 p.m.:

CF Joc Pederson L
2B Ozzie Albies S
1B F. Freeman L
3B Austin Riley R
LF Adam Duvall R
RF Jorge Soler R
SS D. Swanson R
C Stephen Vogt L
P T. Toussaint R

Pretty sure I want Duvall in CF over Joc.
 
In his post-deadline interview, AA brought up re-signing Freddie: “Our goal is the sign Freeman, and he absolutely wants to stay”.
 
Little worried about the storms... As daytime heating subsides they should diminish but we may see a delay at least depending on how the cores of the storms track
 
No roster shakeup needed tonight. Duvall replaces Sandoval. Almonte wears the panda head. Kidding about the last part.
 
Sad to see panda go. I know the kids loved having the hugs in the dugout, and it made it a little more fun as a fan of the game.
 
If you don't understand the difference between reporters and shills for the team, you needed only to watch the pregame show. Hyping the Hank Night above all else.
