GDT 5/10/26: Braves @ Dodgers - Mother’s Day Game!!!

No more Mateo Jarvis.

Acuña expected back this week too. We're gonna have a full powered lineup.

I'm pretty sure it's going to be Farmer and Jarvis going down. Mateo is one of the fastest players in baseball.

Yeah - they are gonna keep Mateo- he’s our best pinch runner - he’s a weapon.

Mateo has been a great bench player all season. I don’t see him going anywhere anytime soon.

Jarvis down for Kim. Farmer gone for Acuña. Tromp up for Murphy if he hits the IL with his hand injury (with the Farmer DFA opening up a spot on the 40-man).

We've really seen the benefit of enhanced depth this season. Dubon is a solid, glove-first super-utility guy who's hitting above his head, Mateo is a speed merchant and solid defensive middle infielder without much of a bat and Heim (RIP) was just a veteran third catcher. But being able to fill lineup spots with vaguely competent major league players instead of Chadwick Tromp and Stuart Fairchild makes a big difference. And that's with a string of injuries that really strained that depth.

Or White has a concussion and is going on the seven-day concussion IL, with Kim joining the team. So they punt the decisions a little longer but look a bit light on the OF now (though I guess Farmer has six career innings in LF …).
