Things are getting a lot more real now, folks.
Immediately after announcing their playoff roster, the Braves put a lineup with some familiar faces on it. The top three hitters of Acuna, Freeman, and Ozuna has been the norm for a while now and while Travis d’Arnaud has cooled off a bit, he retains the cleanup spot. Ozzie, Dansby, and Duvall follow with Nick Markakis, who has steadily fallen in the order with his recent struggles, and Austin Riley rounding out the lineup. In related news, this is the deepest Braves lineup we have seen in many years.
