At this point, Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker may have to take a show of hands to see who might be healthy enough just to finish out the regular season… never mind the opening round of the playoffs.
Right now…
- Ronald Acuna is shut down for a full week+ (left side groin; Grade 1-to-2). Note that this is an injury he also had in July last year.
- Freddie Freeman has a sore elbow (bone spurs). Expected to play this weekend, though just how much is a bit of a mystery.
