Atlanta Braves Morning Chop: news and notes from the East and more

Just was running through a bunch of stats and recent news items. Some are about the Atlanta Braves specifically and some are just things about baseball. Hopefully you’ll find something of interest in here.

Funny that while “pace of play” was the mantra last year, nobody’s saying a word about it here in 2019. That despite the fact that game times are up by 3 minutes on average this season… giving back much of the 5 minute reduction from 2018.

Not uncoincidentally, run-scoring is up by a full 1/3rd of a run per game over 2018 (7%).
