It is quite amazing how the Atlanta Braves have improved their bench just over the 1st half of the 2017 season. The productivity that Atlanta has received from their bench is one of their best in recent years. In 2017, just the names that have changed on the bench is quite eye popping, and makes the bench in Atlanta very good:
Atlanta Braves 5-man bench at the start of the 2017…
- Chase d’Arnaud, Anthony Recker, Emilio Bonafacio, Jace Peterson, Kurt Suzuki
…versus the current Atlanta Braves Bench:
- Lane Adams, Danny Santana, Sean Rodriguez, Johan Camargo, Kurt Suzuki
